2023 will be full of excitement and innovation and two startup challenges are just around the corner. In addition to our Robotics Challenge, we’ll be running a SeedTech Challenge this year. This will involve us in scouting startups all around the world that are working on innovative topics in seed propagation.

Some of the most important and, above all, time-consuming steps in the current seed propagation process involve laborious manual work. This year, we’ve set ourselves the task of tackling this problem. We’re already excited about finding and evaluating new approaches and seeing how these could influence the future of seed propagation.

As with our Bio Innovation Challenge, which culminated last November, there’ll be another networking event in 2023, whose aim will be to promote valuable exchange between international partners, industry, innovation, tech and seed specialists as well as local farmers. After all, a strong network, coupled with interaction between experts, is one of the foundations for accelerating tomorrow’s innovations today.

As you read this, we’re just getting started with the planning of our SeedTech Challenge and look forward to updating you in our next newsletter.
