How do we turn technology into agricultural innovation in Australia? How do we use this innovation to tackle real world problems? How does one take an idea from light bulb to successful startup? One answer to these questions, according to Australian agtech pioneer Matthew Pryor, is by growing the partnership between venture capital and startups through accelerator programs and incubators. Matthew is doing just that.
