InvertiGro Co-Founder and CEO, Paul Millett is looking forward to participating in the Vertical Farming World Congress panel discussion on ‘the future of profitable vertical farming’ in Frankfurt later this month. Commercial viability is the Achilles heal of the vertical farming industry – and the focus of InvertiGro’s innovative ‘plug-and-play’ farming solution that enables businesses to reliably, sustainably and profitably grow, and easily switch between, a wide variety of crops, almost anywhere and at any scale. It is an honour to share the stage with such good company – and we hope to see you there! https://lnkd.in/eKNHewak #InvertiGro #VerticalFarming #IndoorAg #AgTech #SustainableAgriculture

We are delighted to have been selected by the NUS Business School to host their Executive MBA students as part of the immersive learning component of their Business Analytics course module. Today the cohort of more than 50 executives - representing all corners of the globe and industries as diverse as hospitality and tourism to mining, property development, healthcare and more - visited the InvertiGro showcase farm facility in Sydney where they were able to see the farm in action and learn how we harness innovation and the power of data analytics to empower our customers to make informed and insightful decisions to operate profitable and sustainable businesses - a real-world demonstration of how indoor vertical farming not only helps businesses achieve their environmental goals but how our solutions are also good for business! We feel very privileged to have had this opportunity with thanks to NUS Business School and Associate Professor Chaithanya Bandi. #ShapeTheFuture #AgTech #Innovation #VerticalFarming

This time last week we were at GreenTech Amsterdam, proud to be showcasing our InvertiCube in action to an international event audience for the first time! It was great to see our unique solution attracting so much attention - and resonating with local needs. We're thrilled to have had this opportunity to champion Australian AgTech innovation on the global stage, including sharing our vision for a more sustainable and resilient agrifood ecosystem at the Austrade Greentech Breakfast session panel discussion. We loved being able to reconnect with friends and colleagues from across the globe and we look forward to continuing the conversations with those we met at the show too. Thanks to Vertical Farm Daily for the opening image of our team with the InvertiCube and to Wim Verstraaten and Australian Trade and Investment Commission (Austrade) for panel discussion opportunity. #Australia #AgTech #Innovation #SustainableAgriculture #VerticalFarming

Food, technology and the future! 🌱🥩 As a foodie, I care about where food comes from, how it tastes, and its origin and story. I went on two food tech tours last week, and the food was grown inside labs. Yes, you read it right — LABS! The first tour was an indoor vertical farm, and the second tour was manufacturing lab-grown, cultured meat. Both tours were fascinating, and the science and manufacturing behind it was mind-blowing 🤯 Did you know: 🌱 50% of vegetables do not arrive at the final destination 🌱 25% of vegetables never leave the farm 🌱 25% of vegetables are lost in the supply chain I was at InvertiGro, an indoor vertical farm that creates controlled environments for growing vegetables, fruits, flowers, crops, animal feed, and leafy greens. Some of the main benefits include 🌱 food shortage issues 🌱 quality issues 🌱 no chemical pesticides 🌱 use less land, less water & less waste 🌱 fewer miles travelled, and 🌱 greater food security We may also have our favourite foods every season, not just in certain seasons! 🤯 I was also at Vow, a cultured meat startup. It is addressing the rapidly growing global demand for meat and using science and innovation to help meet it. How are they doing this? 🥩 They take a tiny bit of an animal and select the perfect cells. 🥩 They culture the cells and grow only the meat you want. This happens in huge tanks that give cells space to grow. 🥩 They craft food unlike anything else on the market. They don't aim to replicate meat but to make it more delicious and nutritious. Lab-grown or cultured meat is poised to revolutionise the food industry and become a sustainable solution for the future. Here's why: 🥩 Addressing Environmental Concerns: Traditional meat production contributes to greenhouse gas emissions, land degradation, and water scarcity. Cultured meat has a smaller environmental footprint, requiring up to 99% less land and 82-96% less water per kilogram than conventional meat production. 🥩 Improving Animal Welfare: Cultured meat offers a cruelty-free alternative to animal factory farming, aligning with the growing demand for more ethical and sustainable food choices. 🥩 Meeting Global Demand: With the world's population projected to reach 9.7 billion by 2050, the demand for meat is expected to increase by 13% by 2030. Cultured meat can provide a scalable and efficient solution to food without further straining our planet's resources. Thanks to Climate Action Week Sydney and Melissa O'Young for opening my eyes to new food tech practices and an excellent festival! 🤔 What do you think about indoor vertical farms and lab-grown cultured meat? Would you eat it? What other food tech solutions have you seen? #foodtech #climatetech #sustainability 👉 Follow Lucy Lin and Emerging Tech Unpacked for more tech, food, climate and sustainability insights and events

Rounding out a busy week, we loved introducing our farm and our vision for the future of farming to Barker College's Year 11 Ag Students. With career opportunities across horticulture, software development, engineering, industrial design, business development and more ... and with exciting applications across industries as diverse as farming, forestry, pharmaceuticals and even space research, we hope to have inspired some future farmers in their midsts. We are proud to be growing with Barker College who already have one of our InvertiWalls growing fresh produce in their school dining room. A big thank you to the Barker Agriculture team again for allowing us to be part of your journey - and to the InvertiGro team for so generously giving their time and sharing their knowledge. https://lnkd.in/g8JVEHgq #InspiringTomorrow #InnovationInEducation #verticalfarming #sustainableliving #agtech #futureofAgriculture
