June 17th, 2023Something for the ag tech nerds

Are you an aspiring AgTech entrepreneur? Or would you like to know how the Victorian Government is supporting the local AgTech ecosystem?

Agriculture Victoria’s new podcasts series ‘AgTech Innovators’ explores the unique pathways available to Victorian start-ups, how they can best attract investment and what global trends, opportunities and barriers they should be aware of.

Agriculture Victoria’s AgRIN Project Lead Mark Sloan said they are really concentrating on informing anybody out there with an innovative idea and giving them a pathway to access and to get their ideas off the ground.

‘Agriculture Victoria sees its role as helping nurture current existing AgTech start-ups and also help to further build our ecosystem in Victoria so that we have the capacity in the state to continue to be innovative.’

‘We talk to a wide range of people involved in growing this industry and share with the listeners their journey, the things that worked, and the things that didn’t,’ he said.

In Episode 1 of the series, we talk to Maxie Juang from SproutX and hear about their Business of Agriculture Program that is being funded through a partnership between LaunchVic and Agriculture Victoria.
