AgTech is Booming! In 2021, investors ”plowed“ $4.9 billion into AgTech startups (a 45% increase over 2020).
On June 1, 2022, Springboard hosted Dolphin Tank AgTech in the Triangle. This was an exciting event because it was the first-ever Dolphin Tank focused on women entrepreneurs innovating in AgTech.
Featuring these four innovative founders:

• Phoebe Snyder, Optera
With these expert panelists:

This event was presented by Springboard Enterprises in partnership with Pappas Capital, NC IDEA, N.C. Plant Sciences Initiative, Rex Health Ventures, and Alexandria LaunchLabs.
Springboard’s Dolphin Tank is a pitch event where women entrepreneurs receive constructive insights from investors and subject matter experts. Dolphin Tank is about channeling the expertise of the people in the room with a focus on one thing: ”How can we help?”
