AgTech in Kentucky

The positive societal impact and commercial opportunity for Dutch companies are clear and compelling. However, one of the lessons learned of greenhouse development is that for a sustainable and scalable growth of the AgTech business, providing techniques and hardware is not enough: an entire ecosystem needs to be created to make this transition sustainable. Therefore, Dutch and Kentucky companies, knowledge institutes and government agencies have joined forces to make this a reality.
