EP 119: AgriNovus, Consumer Electronics Show (CES), & Favorite Purchase

“If we agree that food is the only economy that touches every person on the planet, then it’s people at the center of this thing.” So how do we grow the agbioscience economy in the state of Indiana in a way that is smart, durable, and draws innovators to Indiana? Mitch Frazier joins hosts Sal Sama and Ryan Priest in front of our first live, studio audience for this episode of The High Ground powered by Premier Companies. Mitch Frazier is the President and CEO of AgriNovus Indiana which is a non-profit that’s dedicated to moving the agbiosciences sector forward.

Mitch will explain how value-added food nutrition, animal health and nutrition, plant science and crop protection, agriculture tech, and production agriculture fit into the mission of AgriNovus. You’ll also hear about how the need for AgriNovus was discovered and how they’re working to connect startups to capital and other companies. He’ll also share how agriculture is dominating at the Consumer Electronics Show and why and how the powerful players in the agbioscience realm are being drawn to Indiana. As Ryan says, Mitch is powerfully persuasive, and if you don’t live in Indiana already, you just might have to pack up and move there.
