A marathon of agricultural innovations
The aim of AGreen Startup is to mobilize collective intelligence in support of agriculture and innovation. Based on the "start-up weekends" model, teams made up of a project leader and team members from all backgrounds (agri, agro, management, design, communication, marketing, engineering, etc.) meet over 2 days to work on their entrepreneurial project with the support of coaches and expert advice.
