So how can agtech bring together two very different groups?In this episode, you’ll hear practical tips from farmers and agtech experts on how to build mutually beneficial relationships. For startups, this includes approaching farmers as partners, rather than ‘customers,’ and understanding ‘grower economics’. And for farmers, it’s about finding opportunities to access and help shape new products as the startup iterates. This might look like an equity partnership, an advisory relationship, or even becoming a co-founder.On the panel:Walt Duflock - Vice President of Innovation, Western GrowersEmma Weston - CEO & Co-Founder, AgriDigital Pete Nelson - President & Executive Director, AgLaunchThis episode is an edited version of an AusAgritech Meetup, sponsored by Foodbytes! by Rabobank.
