AgriNext Conference is thrilled to announce that Nadine Benchaffai, the Venture Builder Director at DANA Global, will be joining as a distinguished speaker at the upcoming conference scheduled to take place on November 13-14, 2024, in Dubai.

With over two decades of experience in strategic marketing, investment, and entrepreneurship within the F&B verticals, Nadine Benchaffai brings a wealth of knowledge and expertise to the event. As the Venture Builder Director at DANA Global, Nadine oversees the innovation pipeline and strategy for a cohort of desert tech startups, collaborating closely with design partners and corporate sponsors.

Nadine's illustrious career began in the world of FMCG, where she held key roles at renowned companies such as Kraft Foods, Nestle Purina, and Yoplait. In 2006, she co-founded Tortilla Mexican Grills, which has since grown to over 70 stores in the UK and was listed on the AIM LSE market in 2021.
