Facing increasing pressures from climate change, soil erosion and biodiversity loss requires the speed and accuracy that technology provides. Regardless of farm size, farmers need to grow healthier, more productive plants. New innovations in agriculture have shown us how technology can help us build more sustainable food systems and improve food security in every corner of the world. From the invention of plough to milking machines, innovations have played a considerable role in agricultural development
Join us for the last webinar in the Tech for Impact Series to look into the Agriculture sector, the fourth socio-economic drivers that will be featured in this series. The latest landscape and innovation demands in the agriculture sector will be discussed, alongside the quirks, needs and commercialisation challenges. Some existing start-up solutions that are already being applied in the sector will also be highlighted.
The webinar series is part of a pathway designed to facilitate the acceleration of your technologies and innovations to market. Take your innovative ideas from here and put them to work in upcoming workshops and bootcamps to push your vision for research to revenue to reality in 2024.
