This year, we proudly unveiled our 3rd generation of comprehensive environmental and water control systems for greenhouses. We've been active globally, participating in several international expos, with our most notable presence at AgreME in Dubai this October. The event was a resounding success, generating a wealth of leads that we're currently turning into deals. Additionally, we've established partnerships with ESAPCO, a leading integrator in the US market, and Hydrobuilder, the complete online hydroponics and grow store.
Our primary challenge lies in expanding market reach and forging new global partnerships.
We've achieved significant success in hydroponics and greenhouse automation projects. Currently, we're focused on strengthening our pipeline for expansion into the European and North American markets. In 2024, we plan to participate in numerous trade shows, including IPM Essen, Fruit Logistica Berlin, Indoor Ag-Con USA, GreenTech Amsterdam, Cultivate'24 Columbus, and several others.
Our main focus areas are North America and Western Europe.
For 2024, we anticipate the Controlled Environment Agriculture (CEA) market to maintain its strong growth trajectory. Key drivers include increasing global food demand due to population growth, urbanization fueling the demand for locally sourced foods, and the inherent advantages of CEA over traditional farming, such as resource efficiency and reduced pesticide use. However, challenges like high setup costs and a need for skilled labor remain. North America and Europe are expected to be pivotal markets, with trends leaning towards increased investment, AI integration, vertical farming growth, and a heightened focus on sustainability.
