Sounds like I missed a great meeting. Really wanted learn more about Agtech, as I am one of the founders of the startup Vitae America.
Phase II of our startup business involves the construction of our Campus/Warehouse in Melville NY. The top of our campus has 6.5acres vertical farming and solar/wind components.

Just a great meetup this time around - well balanced panel of experts covering different view points that was well moderated. Galvanize was a welcoming venue, pizza and wine were much appreciated. Thanks to all who sponsored and attended!
