Additional Information

AgriScale is a curated market-entry program for ambitious Norwegian agrifoodtech companies ready to scale internationally.

In 2026, join us in Spain — Europe’s fourth-largest agricultural market — and gain direct access to one of the continent’s most dynamic agrifoodtech ecosystems.

Together with ICEX, Spanish Institute for Foreign Trade, we have designed three days of high-value meetings with potential customers and partners, practical market insights, and hands-on exposure to the Spanish agrifood sector. The program is built to help companies understand the market, validate opportunities for establishment in the country, and accelerate their entry into Spain.

AgriScale 2026 connects Norwegian innovators with the right partners, customers, and market knowledge needed to successfully launch and grow in the Spanish market.

You will travel with a curated group of at least seven Norwegian agrifoodtech startups and scaleups with ambitions to expand into the Spanish market.

You will be accompanied by Aggrator representatives, including Salvador Baille, Partner, and Bjarne Tvete, Partner & CEO. 

In addition, selected Norwegian investors and potentially strategic stakeholders may join parts of the program.
