The International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT) and The Entrepreneur Zone (TEZ) are calling for applications from entrepreneurs and innovators for its online agriculture and food-tech business idea boot camp. The camp hosted by ICRISAT’s Agri-Business Incubator will be held from August 3 to 5.
The three-day programme is for entrepreneurs planning to enter the agriculture and food-tech start-up domain, and also for early-stage ventures looking to calibrate their business model. The sessions will cover emerging entrepreneurship opportunities in the agri-business sector, guide participants in developing the problem statement and value proposition, build the business model, and provide an overview of the ag-tech support system.
“The camp offers entrepreneurs a platform to discuss their business ideas in upcoming sectors like agri-fintech, farm-gate value addition, climate change resilience and adaptation with our experts,” said CEO of Agribusiness and Innovation Platform-ICRISAT, Aravazhi Selvaraj.
