For the third consecutive year, the World Dairy Expo Tech Spotlight provides an opportunity for companies to highlight new ideas and innovations entering the global dairy industry.
The event will be available both online and in person in Madison, where technology startups and scale-ups will formally present their products and services to dairy producers around the globe.
The 2022 World Dairy Expo Tech Spotlight will be hosted virtually on Sept. 15 at 10 a.m. with free event registration available now: wdetechspotlight.agritechcapital.com. The online event will be followed by an in-person event during World Dairy Expo in Madison on Oct. 6 from 9-11 a.m.
Hosted by Agritech Capital with support from World Dairy Expo, the Spotlight brings together leading dairy technologies, giving them the opportunity to meet with top dairy farmers, virtually or face-to-face.
“All the innovations selected, propose practical solutions that solve critical problems for dairy producers and as a result help them maximize efficiencies and increase profitability,” says AgriTech Capital President Aidan Connolly. “This is an extraordinary opportunity for them to show their products in action.”
Both the virtual and in-person components of the event include two parts, a showcase of the innovations followed by a panel discussion with industry experts Western Kentucky University Prof. Jeffrey Bewley with Cowfocused.com, University of Illinois Prof. Michael Hutjens, and Cornell University Prof. Julio Giordana.
Among the companies participating are exhibiting companies Ever.Ag, Labby Inc., milc group, Nedap Livestock Management, and smaXtec Inc. Also joining for the virtual component are CattleEye, EIO Diagnostics and Milk Moovement.
Each featured startup has digitally based technology for the dairy industry such as robots, cameras, or sensors, and addresses a specific need identified by producers like feed bunk management, cow behavior monitoring, cow health, milk quality, manure treatment or labor efficiencies.
