Bluegrass AgTech Launch Event

Bluegrass AgTech Development Corp. introduces challenge grant program! 

Bluegrass AgTech Development Corp is a new organization, cultivating an innovation ecosystem for entrepreneurs and startups in the agricultural sector.

Bluegrass AgTech was developed through a partnership among the City of Lexington, the Kentucky Department of Agriculture and the University of Kentucky Martin-Gatton College of Agriculture, Food and Environment, and Alltech.

Bluegrass AgTech will connect Kentucky’s agricultural innovators with both public and private funding sources and incentives to help transform Kentucky into the agtech capital of the United States — yielding new agri-food and agri-business companies, boosting Kentucky’s economy and unlocking a more affordable, nutritious and environmentally sustainable food future for Kentucky and beyond.

At the launch event, Bluegrass AgTech will introduce its challenge grant program, aimed at attracting agtech and food-based businesses to Kentucky by offering incentive funding, valuable resources and promotional opportunities.
