Join us at the Cross-Border Symposium on Smart Farming Innovations
Do you have a solution for the challenge of growing more healthy food with less labor, pesticides, or waste? If so then join us at the Dutch/German event on Smart Farming.
Asimovo has been invited to speak as one of the industry innovators at the Cross-Border symposium on Smart Farming Innovations, happening in Enschede, The Netherlands on the 2nd of October.
The event calls upon all start-ups, companies, researchers, and product developers active in robotics, AI, and AgTech. On 2 October AgTech innovators from the Netherlands and Germany will gather in Enschede to learn more about cross-border cooperation opportunities between the Netherlands and Germany.
With contributions from leading German and Dutch developers and researchers on precision farming, autonomous agriculture machinery and smart implements , as well as breakout sessions on important topics such as cross-border subsidy opportunities and legal and ethical questions. This day is intended to increase participants knowledge and expand their network.
Here are the details:
