Investing in a Local Food Economy & Bridging the Urban-Rural Divide

Part of Agritecture Xchange, this panel discussion will focus on New York City’s role within the larger local food system.

Among other questions, we’ll examine:

• Does urban agriculture support, or compete with, a stronger local food network?
• What opportunities exist for entrepreneurs and funders to bridge gaps?
• What are the most impactful applications for new technologies?

We’ll hear from a panel of experts investing in projects across urban, peri-urban, and rural areas. Moderated by Meg Savage of Edible Manhattan and Food Loves Tech.
