The Farmvision Festival presents new, innovative insights from agriculture and agricultural research such as drones and robots. It is organized by the Hans Eisenmann Forum for Agricultural Sciences together with researchers from various departments of the Technical University of Munich, the TUM Venture Labs and partner institutions. It takes place on May 6 at the TUM Campus Weihenstephan.
Part of the program will also be a pitch event organized by the TUM Venture Labs, where founders can present their agri ideas to the audience and compete for two grants: a TUM Startup Booster Grant worth €45,000 for a project in the outdoor agriculture sector; and a TUM Deep Tech Venture Grant of €20,000.
Application deadline is April 25
Which prize can be won depends on the type of founding team. The Booster Grant is available to unfounded young companies with a TUM background or a host chair at TUM. The Deep Tech Venture Grant, on the other hand, is reserved for agri founders without a TUM background. Here it also applies that the team consists predominantly of international founders (at least 50 percent without German citizenship) and wants to establish itself in the greater Munich area.
