Agriculture 2.0 for innovators, investors, and friends of sustainable agriculture

We received this announcement and would like to share it with the aquaculture community because we believe it fills a need for people looking for capital to grow their business. The last conference, held in September 2009, had some aquaculture presentations so we encourage you to consider attending this event in March 2010.

From the press release:

Agriculture 2.0 is the pre-eminent gathering for the entrepreneurs, investors, food producers, and experts working to catalyze -and capitalize on- the transition to a more sustainable agricultural and food system. After an extremely successful inaugural conference in New York City last month, we are delighted to invite you to the next Agriculture 2.0 conference.

SAVE THE DATE…AND SPREAD THE WORD!

What? Agriculture 2.0, the conference for innovators and investors working toward a more sustainable food system

Where? The Four Seasons Hotel in Palo Alto, California

When? Wednesday, March 24, 2010

Everyone was impressed by the talk:do ratio exhibited at Agriculture 2.0 in NYC, but we never doubted. Re-engineering the food system is a monumental task but, as we saw in New York last month, the knowledge, talent and money to make significant progress exists and is motivated. Agriculture 2.0 Silicon Valley will be even bigger and more inclusive. We are currently recruiting entrepreneurs who are profit-driven and shovel-ready and investors who are poised to contribute the capital that will drive the transition to a more sustainable food system.

Registration will open November 12th, but mark your calendars today and help us spread the word.
