Welcome to the First San Diego AgTech community social and hackathon. Through a curriculum and facilitation and experienced entrepreneurs, we will create businesses by Sunday.
So currently, our city is exploring the idea of does an ag tech incubator make sense here in Escondido?
And that's what we're all about this whole weekend, is how do we build the right community to build good, great companies? Right here in Escondido, we use a lot of technology, and that's what I'm here to talk to you about. We want you to bring it on. That's the future of agriculture, and it's the reason that it's so ripe for innovation.
Winner of the first annual Ag Tech Hackathon in Escondido goes to.
