This upcoming specialized city will serve as a global destination for start-ups and industry experts in the food ecosystem

Food Tech Valley will host R&D facilities, an innovation centre, smart food logistics hub and areas for vertical farming.

This tech-advanced agriculture hub will also help in shaping aquaculture and hydroponics, which will boost the city’s capacity to manufacture home-grown agricultural produce, as well as reduce wastage of resources.
