Innovative seed priming technologies must be effective, but they must also be safe, evidence-based and ready for responsible use. PrimSeedPower is preparing “Safe-by-Design Seed Priming Technologies: Bridging Innovation, Toxicology and Regulatory Science” in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, on 18–21 May 2027.
This planned interactive event will bring together plant scientists, toxicologists, regulators, industry representatives and policymakers to examine how safety and risk assessment can be integrated early in technology development. Through panel discussions and workshop activities, participants will consider practical challenges surrounding emerging priming agents, environmental and agronomic safety, regulatory expectations and pathways to responsible innovation. The activity is listed as co-organised within CTDC13. Programme and participation details are subject to further announcement.
