Working with entrepreneurs and startups and innovators for agri-tech across the UK and around the world.
We work to help startups in UK farming and food sector, bringing together multisectoral consortia to invest and fund bright ideas. We are accelerating the creation, adoption and rollout of innovative agri-food technology.
Supporting independent SMEs, early-stage startups and innovators looking to progress and develop their products and ideas, our wide network, in-house expertise and cutting-edge facilities allow us to help deliver and drive forward agri-tech innovation.
We work across all elements of the agri-food pipeline as we collaborate, support and work with food processors and retailers across the UK and globally. By addressing the application of scientific and commercial know-how, we tackle the challenges and opportunities of sustainability and food security, labour and productivity and the management of disease pressures.
Building partnerships and multisectoral consortia, be that collaborative R&D (CR&D) or more direct commercial R&D to unlock and leverage funding, together we’re finding answers to complex farming and food sustainability challenges that not one part of the sector can address alone. We are building and connecting a world-class hub of experts in their field to achieve interrelated goals. Investing in new ideas and driving forward impactful change for the sector.
