SXSW 2023
What’s Wrong with Food Tech?
Description:
Venture capital investors directed $51.7 billion into agrifood technologies in 2021 alone. This funding has the potential to address the most pressing problems in the food and agriculture sector, but without careful consideration new technologies can also exacerbate inequalities. This panel will address the importance of inclusive research and development processes, how technology can increase transparency solutions, and where we go from here.
