The Organizing Committee highlighted some of the initiatives of this edition. Among them was FIMA Tech, the specialized space in Hall 9, dedicated exclusively to technology, digitalization, and automation in the agricultural sector. It served as a platform for companies, startups, and universities working in robotics, artificial intelligence, IoT, and precision agriculture to showcase how they are responding to the sector's growing technological demands.

Similarly, the Committee members highlighted FIMA Conecta Talento, the strategic initiative aimed at attracting young professionals to the agri-food sector and showcasing the opportunities it offers.

The Committee also emphasized the results of the Technical Innovations Competition, which recognizes the R&D&I investment efforts of exhibiting companies each year. The Excellence Award went to the Gardeniers Special Employment Center, supported by ATADES, a project that combines certified organic farming and social inclusion.

Feria de Zaragoza is already working on the next edition, FIMA 2028, which will continue to focus on technological innovation, sustainability, professionalization of the sector and attracting young talent in the agricultural sector.
