"Oftentimes, the entrepreneurs, as I mentioned, are not necessarily thinking of agriculture in the first instance and maybe developing something for the energy space or the healthcare space and of- and so on. But often there is applicability that can be brought into food and agriculture, and then what helps with that approach is that the technology can sometimes be de-risked for another sector, and then we can come in as an investor and, and help them to bring it into food and agriculture." What comes after the hype in agri-food tech? More discipline. More realism. More focus on technologies that can prove their value in the field and in the market. In the final episode of Season 7 of the Computomics Podcast, we talk with Louisa Burwood-Taylor, Chief Communications and Intelligence Officer at AgFunder, about how the sector has changed over the past decade and where it may be heading next. Why listen?
