05/03/2014: Oilseed & Grain Trade Summit to tackle industry issues in Ocotber


The prestigious, Memphis-based agri-research company Informa Economics Group will be participating in the October 2014 annual ‘Oilseed & Grain Trade Summit’, announced it host HighQuest Partners.
Pertinent topics addressed at Informa Economics’ previously held Annual Fall Outlook Conferences - such as the overview on global feed and grains, the management and monetization of scarce water resources and highlights of the global supply/demand situations - are already integrated into the industry-leading, globally recognised content planned for the Summit. 

HighQuest Partners is a globally recognized strategy consulting, events, and media company serving agriculture, agribusiness, grains, oilseed, food, and biofuels markets

The Summit will be held October 7-9, 2014, at the Hyatt Regency in New Orleans, USA.
A special pre-event program will be added on Tuesday, October 7, to address topics that would have been presented at Informa’s Annual Livestock, Meat, Poultry and Dairy Spring Conference.
All registered attendees of the ‘Oilseed & Grain Trade Summit’ are invited to participate in this program at no additional charge.
“Participation from Informa Economics Group’s exceptional team will only serve to enhance our already rich content with more comprehensive presentations and knowledgesharing for our Summit attendees,” said Greg Mellinger, President and CEO of HighQuest Partners.
“Additionally, the inclusion of Informa event attendees at the Summit will greatly increase the networking and business opportunities on a global scale.”
The Summit, now in its ninth year, is the largest annual industry event that convenes buyers, sellers and global leaders in the oilseed and feed grains sector.
Delegates will have the opportunity to share the latest information on the oilseed and feed grains markets and network with their peers and with existing and potential new clients in order to broaden their competitive edge.
Attendees hail from around the world – the 2013 event in Minneapolis, included over 75 exhibitors and hosted nearly 650 attendees from 30 US states and 25 countries.
Summit participants also will enjoy 10-plus hours of dedicated networking time to build and foster relationships among the Summits’ many participants: exporters, importers, merchandisers, traders, and primary processors and downstream consumers in feed, food, biodiesel and industrial applications.
In addition, attendees will benefit from the event’s dynamic presentations, which will include engaging information and panel discussions that promote the sharing of key knowledge among industry leaders and experts.
