Diego Risso wants you to experience something unforgettable next fall—not just a world-class event, but a moment of convergence that could change the future of the seed business in the Americas.
Foz do Iguaçu is where nature and innovation will meet, says Risso, executive director of the Seed Association of the Americas. It’s the perfect setting to inspire new ideas, spark conversations, and move our industry forward.
From September 29 to October 1, 2025, the 10th Seed Congress of the Americas will unfold in one of Brazil’s most iconic locations—home to the awe-inspiring Iguaçu Falls. But it’s not just the scenery that’s breathtaking. The event is shaping up to be one of the most dynamic seed industry gatherings in the hemisphere.
With the theme “Promoting the Seed Business in the Americas,” the congress is designed to bring together top-tier leaders, researchers, plant breeders, policymakers, students, and decision-makers from across the continent. Over two and a half days, attendees will dive into plenary sessions and specialized panels that cover everything from global trade and regulatory frameworks to sustainability and emerging technologies.
Whether you’re driving policy, leading a startup, or running R&D at a multinational, there’s something here for you, Risso says.
But this congress isn’t just about discussion—it’s about doing business. A full trade show and curated business roundtables will provide fertile ground for new partnerships. Meanwhile, the Innovation Floor will spotlight cutting-edge academic and research breakthroughs that are transforming how seeds are bred, produced, and brought to market.
Registration is open now. Mark your calendar, pack your bags, and prepare to be part of something big.
