BIOFACH Congress
– where the sector enters into dialogue

Knowledge transfer, exchange and discussion, professionally grounded and future-oriented - characterise the congress held alongside BIOFACH. Over the course of four congress days, from Tuesday to Friday, all visitors and exhibitors are invited to meet on site, deepen their knowledge and engage in dialogue.

  • A programme by the sector for the sector: Via the Call for Ideas, everyone is invited to submit concrete session proposals for the congress programme.
  • Knowledge platform beyond the trade fair: Exclusively for trade visitors and BIOFACH exhibitors, selected congress sessions will be available up to three months as recordings on the digital platform "BIOFACH digital".  

A look back at the focus theme 2026

Growing Tomorrow: Young Voices, Bold Visions

BIOFACH 2026 explored how young changemakers are shaping the future of organic food and farming in an increasingly unstable world.

The congress highlighted international perspectives from the next generation, who are reimagining organic within the framework of planetary boundaries and global responsibility. It also showed how young and experienced players in the sector are working together to build sustainable systems – and how policy and business can support this transformation.
