At The Combine AgTech Incubator, we are dedicated to empowering agriculture technology founders with the personalized support they need to lead in agricultural innovation. We understand that founding a startup can be an intimidating journey. Many founders aspire to create successful companies and drive AgTech innovation but often lack the clear steps needed to build their startups, leading to a loss of confidence. That’s where The Combine steps in. We believe no founder should have to navigate this path alone. Our proven method has already assisted 29 startups in raising over $16 million in capital. Through individualized support, access to a robust network of farmers, and immersion in the Nebraska AgTech Ecosystem, we’re committed to helping founders succeed.
