UvaNova and Yentzen Group to organise the first technical-commercial event specialised in table grapes
The first ever GrapeTech at the Casino Monticello Events Centre in Santiago, Chile on 18 June, 2025. Organised by UvaNova and Yentzen Group, GrapeTech aims to be the most important technical event in Chile focused solely on table grape production.
Its main goal is to bring together the global community of experts to provide technical and commercial aspects allow for the growth of the industry, including post-harvest, crop management, analysis of new varieties, and nutrition, among others.
“We have had complex years in the Chilean grape industry, with a slow and costly varietal replacement that has required a significant effort from producers,” said Rafael Rodríguez, president of UvaNova. “However, we are at a turning point, with consolidated varieties and a better capacity to adapt to global demand. GrapeTech will be a unique opportunity to share knowledge, improve practices and plan strategic investments.”
The event will address essential topics such as new, more productive and resistant varieties, methods to increase production efficiency, strategies to optimize resources and reduce costs, and tools to maintain global competitiveness.
“GrapeTech is a necessity for the industry, as it will bring together producers, exporters and researchers from around the world to explore innovations, share advances and face the challenges of the sector together, with a focus on business and efficiency,” said Gustavo Yentzen, CEO of Yentzen Group.
The event will also open its doors to presentations of research, tests and field trials carried out by technicians, professionals, institutes, universities and advisors, offering a welcoming platform to show advances and encourage technical dialogue. The information shared at the event will be essential to strengthen the competitiveness and global positioning of the Chilean table grape industry.
