Vertical farming may be a relatively new concept, but it has the potential to revolutionise the way we grow food.
It is an efficient method of agriculture that can produce crops all year round, independently of weather or seasonality, whilst using less water and eliminating the need for pesticides.
However, whether you’re a propagator or seed to harvest grower, raising capital for investing in new technology can be a complicated and time-consuming process.
But, there are funding opportunities available for those interested in entering this industry.To allow you to draw on our experience and knowledge, and that of others in the industry who have invested in Agri-Tech projects, we pulled together an exciting panel of our supportive funding partners and Agri-Tech investors for this session.
You will gain valuable insights into how you should pitch to investors to help you secure funding for investing in vertical farming.The webinar covers topics such as:
• Best practice approaches for pitching to investors, and how to select them.
• Public and private funds available across Europe and the US.
With the growing demand for locally grown, sustainable food, it is an exciting time to be involved in vertical farming.
