As mentioned before we’re talking about Agritech. What is Agritech? The world of agri-food that meets innovation and so they use new technologies and today it could be, it already is, a tool, a way out of the crisis affecting the entire sector.
Obviously we’re going to talk about in an innovative light but without losing touch with reality. Actually it wouldn’t really be right to say, well it wouldn’t be the right kind of communication and information if we said that the agricultural world today is in a flourishing state. That’s not the case.
There are various issues facing agrifood businesses but technology and innovation offer a lot of opportunities and we’re going to show you, to tell you about some good examples. Thomas Ambrosi. Your startup has already received various awards.
On 17 and 18 March in San Francisco the World AgriTech Innovation Summit will take place. That is, if the event goes ahead, we hope so because a lot of other events have been cancelled due to the virus scare. Anyway it’s an event that brings together the best of innovation at a global level.
Among the startups chosen of which there are 15, there’s yours. Ok, so what do you do? We’re taking part, in what in our opinion is, the agro-industrial revolution of our time, we’ve brought together, we’ve joined artificial intelligence and robotics with agriculture.
I come from companies that deal mainly with automation technology and we saw in this market opportunity the possibility to create something highly technological that can really liven up the technological agriculture that we’re talking about today. So we’re actually starting from a completely different field, from the technological field actually we arrive at agriculture.
