Addressing food security is crucial as the global
population is projected to reach 9.8 billion by 2050

In 2022, Indian agrifoodtech raised $2.4 billion across 133 deals. The most active categories by number of deals were Agribusiness Marketplace & Fintech and eGrocery.

To boost agricultural output sustainably, technology-driven solutions are
required. Entrepreneurs can play a key role by leveraging innovative tech
solutions for early pest detection, precision agriculture, reduced chemical
usage, climate-controlled storage, and digital advisory services.

Our accelerator program is the Harbinger of Green Revolutions and aims to empower entrepreneurs to bridge the technology gap, fostering climate-resilient agricultural practices. Aligning technology with climate consciousness enhances food security, combats climate change, and creates a sustainable future for agriculture and the planet. Increasing productivity will enhance the returns to small farmers resulting in a huge social impact.
