AOTECH FINALE FIRESIDE CHAT

Oregon and Innovation in Ag Tech

From the creation of the plow to global positioning system (GPS) driven precision farming equipment, humans have developed advanced devices and precision agriculture and robotic systems with the goal of enabling farmers to be more profitable, efficient, safer, and environmentally friendly. These technological advancements in agriculture highlight the fact that not all innovation occurs in coastal cities known for startup culture. 

In Oregon, technology is being developed and implemented that is rapidly changing the landscape of the agriculture industry around the world. Additionally, Oregon farmers are part of a growing network that allows them to have equity in startup agriculture projects, adding to their revenue stream and further encouraging innovation. 

Join us for a fireside chat conversation about technical innovation, startups outside Portland’s city limits and how the traditional startup investment model is being reinvented to create different paths to financial success for the region’s farmers.
