Through this conference, we engaged Academic, Business, and Government in an open and constructive dialogue about Agroindustry and Appropriate Technology 4.0; Environmental and Mining Engineering; Sustainable Development and Tourism Management; Agriculture and Food Engineering; and Marine, Aquaculture, and Biological Science.
