Politics Of Food

Every country has a champion sector, and this episode argues Australia's should be food and agriculture. It challenges the assumption that food startups deserve less attention than tech, exploring recent budget changes, the case for a dedicated Minister for Food, and why AI and automation are opportunities—not threats—for farming and food manufacturing. Drawing on industry insights and fresh data on small business confidence and bankruptcy trends, the discussion covers how a national food summit could boost productivity, and how supporting food innovation alongside tech and mining could create jobs, exports, and a more resilient, diverse economy. It's a call to action for entrepreneurs and policymakers to help Australia lead a global food revolution—with an upcoming CEO interview to follow with concrete next steps Hosted on Acast.
