Number of Resources for Food and Agritech Startups Grows

The list of resources for startups in the food and agriculture industry is growing. In August, we reported, along with AgThentic and AgInnovation Development Group, that there were 77 programs — from accelerators to incubators to pitch competitions — available to startups in the agritech sector in the Guide to Startup Resources in Agriculture and Food Technology.

We have now updated this report to 90 resources; some we missed the first time around and some of them have launched since the report was published. It’s clear that the ecosystem is growing, as everyone from colleges to lawyers to incumbent firms are getting excited about early stage innovation in food and agriculture. They are launching programs to support startups but also to try and grab a piece of the action.
