Future of Food: Singapore's role within the growing urban food ecosystem

This paper will address the growing importance of the urban food systems globally by highlighting the key drivers of adoption, technology and evolving consumer preferences. We will explore how Singapore has sought to optimise regulations at the policy level, encourage innovation and facilitate business growth thereby offering an avenue to elevate the urban food economy in the wider region. An urban food ecosystem will never feed the world; however, it will vastly improve the resilience of cities by diversifying food sources and contributing to the sustainable management of natural resources. The benefits to our cities are beyond just food security.
