With a deft pivot around a global pandemic, the fourth annual AgTech Hackathon successfully completed its first ‘AgTech Hackathon Lite’ - a virtual version of our popular annual event.
Proving innovation doesn’t quit in the face of a nationwide lockdown, Beta Team - a Manawatu based team, took out the challenge as overall winner with their solution to Zespri International's challenge. The team developed Bugkilla, an all-in-one product which attracts, monitors and eradicates BMSB and provides real-time monitoring and eradication of bug infestations for fruit growers and horticulturists.
Congratulations to Beta Team and thank you to YOU for being involved in our first digital AgTech Hackathon Lite. We hope you enjoyed your experienced and we look forward to continuing work with this community of innovative thinkers.
Please share this news with your friends, family and networks, we know they would love to hear how you spent some of your lockdown participating in AgTech Hackathon.
