The Desafía AgTech Germany program has kicked off, bringing six promising Spanish startups to explore opportunities in the German Agtech ecosystem. Each of them brings unique expertise in areas such as precision agriculture, sustainable crop management, biotechnology, and digital farming solutions. Together with ICEX and Red.es, RootCamp is leading the implementation of this initiative. As a multi-corporate innovation hub, RootCamp supports the startups in building connections, understanding the German market, and turning innovation into concrete business collaborations. Spain’s AgTech ecosystem has grown rapidly in recent years, shaped by the need for efficiency and sustainability in challenging environments. Expanding into Germany allows these startups to apply their know-how in one of Europe’s most advanced and technology-driven agricultural landscapes.
