Last Monday we were pleasantly surprised by an unannounced visit from the well-known Chinese businessman and investor Jack Ma, the co-founder of Alibaba Group. We were very honored that someone in such a position is interested in Dutch horticulture, therefore we were glad to show him around World Horti Center and the Food & Flower sector’s latest innovations.

We believe that Dutch horticulture plays an important role in feeding the growing world population in a sustainable way, with its high-tech food and flower production, sustainable innovations and its collaboration between business, education and government.

We are very happy to have shared our visions with Mr. Jack Ma and hope to receive many more interested parties in horticulture. Everyone is welcome at World Horti Center to learn more about this innovative and collaborative sector; whether it's Chinese investors, Korean students, Mexican companies, Dutch growers or African journalists. Together we will find solutions for feeding and greening the world!
