So what is the AgriTech Incubation?
AgriTech Incubation is a 12-week Technology Incubation Program with a focus on AgriTech. Applicants will first participate in a 2-day Ideathon to brainstorm and test their creativity. 6 leaders will be selected from the Ideathon to form their teams and then proceed to join the 12-week incubation program.
The 6 teams will receive 1,250 dollars and support to validate their new ideas throughout the program alongside a designated coach and multiple international and national mentors.
After the 12-week program, up to 3 finalists will have the opportunity to receive mentorship and support to continue working on their ideas. TUMO Labs will actively assist the finalists to find early adopters of their solution and apply to external acceleration programs over the course of 3-6 months following the initial 12-week period.
In addition, finalists from the previous and upcoming incubations will pitch their idea and one team will have the chance to receive $10,000 in funding to turn their idea into a reality.
