AgriTech in India: Current Scenario, Challenges, and Opportunities - IndiaQuotient 'Anti-Dilution Series' Session #3
India is a global giant in agriculture and the primary source of livelihood for ~55% of its population. Yet, we don’t see many unicorns or large companies in this crucial sector. Why is that?
Introducing the 3rd session of our Anti-Dilution Series:
‘AgriTech in India: Current Scenario, Challenges, and Opportunities’
We’ll be joined by two amazing guests: Abhilash Sethi, Investment Director at Omnivore, and Rohit Sood, Partner at Bertelsmann India Investments.
This session will cover topics, such as:
Limited Unicorns in AgriTech: Despite agriculture being such an important sector in India, why are there such a limited number of unicorns and large companies in this space?
Core Challenges in AgriTech: Seasonality, pricing volatility, low margins, and environmental factors pose significant challenges in agriculture. How can companies overcome these challenges to build a more predictable and sustainable business model?
Government's Role in AgriTech Startups: As a key stakeholder in the agriculture sector, how will the government's role evolve in supporting AgriTech startups?
Emerging Opportunities in AgriTech: We have seen commerce and productivity play in AgriTech so far, but what new opportunities can we expect in this space soon?
How to Evaluate AgriTech Startups and Key Metrics to Look For
