AgTech and Innovation Expo

Startup Shakeup | Farmers 2 Founders | Moira Shire Council

Startup Shakeup, Farmers 2 Founders and Moira Shire Council have

partnered together to bring you an AgTech and Innovation expo, here in Moira Shire in either Numurkah or Strathmerton.

Farmers 2 Founders are committed to building and supporting agri+food startups that can deliver industry impact across agriculture, food, fibre and fisheries.

Fundamental to this is supporting more producers to collaborate with tech developers and other innovators so that these solutions can be developed, fast-tracked and adopted.

We ask you to participate in this short survey, so we can identify your needs and deliver a day later this year that will leave you feeling energised and motivated to consider adopting the latest technologies and innovation for your business.
