Western Growers is excited to welcome National Geographic photographer, wildlife filmmaker and television host Bertie Gregory as the kickoff keynote speaker for the 100th Western Growers Annual Meeting.
Gregory is an award-winning filmmaker who has spent his career traveling to some of the most remote and challenging places on the planet to tell stories about wildlife and the people working to understand and protect it. In 2020, he became BAFTA’s youngest-ever cinematography winner for his work with David Attenborough and the BBC Planet Earth series.
He has hosted and produced 14 television projects for National Geographic, including his latest projects, Sharks Up Close with Bertie Gregory and Secrets of the Penguins, which are streaming on Disney+. He has also been named the National Geographic Rolex Explorer of the Year.
Known for leading teams into extreme environments, Gregory brings a perspective that goes well beyond wildlife filmmaking. Gregory will share stories from his work around the world and offer a look at what it takes to adapt when the unexpected happens. His ability to pivot and turn challenges into opportunities is a fitting message as Western Growers celebrates 100 years of agriculture, innovation and leadership.
