The third BioSense Accelerator Officially Launched

Following the most successful call for application, the BioSense Accelerator has launched its third batch and opened the doors to innovative startups in AgTech.

Startups with innovative digital solutions in the field of agriculture showed great interest in this edition support program, and the jury chose seven of the best teams from Serbia and the region – Atar, Windy, Eco Patents, PhenoMap Pro, Farmit, Veles Sense and Beeamond. The third generation of the accelerator has significantly improved resources available to the participants – this year’s programme is enriched with the partnership of the ICT Hub’s project “Serbia Innovates”, funded by the USAID.

The participants presented their products and solutions, including, among others, a platform for direct connection between consumers from urban areas and agricultural producers, a tool against drought, urban beehives for growing bees in the interior and many other promising solutions that will be developed in the next three months in the BioSense Accelerator. The programme will be implemented through intensive training, personal mentoring and access to BioSense research resources. More than twenty international and local mentors will help new technology entrepreneurs to test the feasibility and viability of their business ideas or digital solutions, and to turn ideas and products into a viable business venture.
