Before you write
A clear enquiry is answered faster. Say which country and region your work relates to, what problem you are trying to solve, and what kind of partner you are looking for. If you are already part of a project, name it so that we can connect you with the people involved.

What happens next
Step one
Your message is read
We check which part of the network is best placed to respond to your enquiry.
Step two
A reply is prepared
We may ask a follow-up question so that the reply is specific to your work rather than general.
Step three
A conversation begins
Where there is a clear fit, we arrange an introduction to the partners or events that are most relevant.
Agri-Tech in China Newton Network works with partners across the UK and China, and every enquiry is read by someone who understands both the research and the practical side of farming.
Meeting in person
Many introductions begin at an event. If you would prefer to meet the network before writing, the events page lists the workshops and visits that are open to new participants.
Working with the network
Our role is to connect, not to decide on behalf of partners. We help frame a question, identify who should be involved and suggest a route for taking the work forward, while the partners keep ownership of their projects.
