Motivating two days at the #AGRIforum in Toronto with leading entrepreneurs and investors such as John Cassidy from SVG Ventures | THRIVE who chaired an insightful panel on VC in #AG. TLDR: Capital is tight, meaning traction and revenue are decision-making metrics for investment more than ever. AI remains top of mind for investors in the AG space.
