Event Description

As the ongoing COVID-19 Pandemic is still creating much uncertainty in the world, we have decided to protect our attendees, speakers and sponsors and host our event online. Through a variety of speakers, panels and discussion, we will feature all the same great content, virtually, that you can enjoy from anywhere - your home, office, field, boat, barn or greenhouse!

The Agricultural Excellence Conference (AgEx) is the only event in Canada dedicated exclusively to bringing farm management enthusiasts together to build their business acumen. This year's theme, Prosperity with Purpose, is about taking a proactive approach to farm business management - to build the confidence and underlying capacity to weather any storm and seize opportunities, positioning the farm for continued success.

  • We know what you're thinking "Oh no, not another online conference," but wait!
  • We'll be using a state-of-the-art platform to recreate the same great learning experience as our in-person Conference... and then some!
    You will be able to move around our virtual conference just like in-person; explore various speaker rooms, fill your swag bag with information, compete in mini-challenges for prizes, and network with others!
    We will have an exhibitor hall where you can learn more about organizations that see the value in business management, just as much as we do and chat with them, face-to-face!
  • We will have our National Resource Showcase - just like we do in person!

And the best part?

All main Conference sessions will be FREE!

Or, you can become a premium participant for only $150 and enjoy small-group follow-up sessions with our speakers.

Registration will open early September and we will announce our platform and all the sessions. To ensure attendees from across the country can join us live, we will be hosting learning sessions between 10:00 a.m. - 4:00 p.m. EST everyday, from December 8-10, 2020.

All of the Conference material will be available for a week after the live event.

Stay tuned for more information about AgEx 2020!

New technology to power Alberta’s energy future

Through the industry-funded TIER program, Alberta’s government is investing $28 million to support six projects using technologies that will help energy companies save money, reduce environmental impacts and stay globally competitive.
