Agriculture is the foundation of our modern society - without reliable access to food, everything stops. But with constant alarming reports of hunger crises and soil degradation, the need for radically improving our agriculture is bigger than ever. My name is Erik Karlsson, and I am the founder of Nepri - We develop microfluidic technology for improving soil health and enabling more sustainable and high-yielding agriculture. With dual MSc degrees in Engineering Nanoscience & Management, I am eager to use my skills and knowledge to make a positive impact and am always looking for ways to collaborate and learn from others in the field. Are you interested in hearing more, or are you also passionate about AgTech and impact innovation? Reach out and let's have a chat! 🌾
