Jamie Burrows, Founder & CEO of Vertical Future talks us through the economics, energy implications, and higher yields from local production with vertical farming technology. Jamie spent 5 years in the US Air Force, before completing his PhD in Health Economics. In the nascent and enormous potential market for vertical farming, Vertical Future started its life 5 years ago growing crops in Central London. Vertical Future now has a team of 45 people focused on hardware, software, high tech monitoring systems, and plant R&D for a huge range of farming applications.
What plants work best for vertical farming? How important are your energy sources for economic production? What are the optimal conditions for an attractive return on capital for farmers? Is vertical produce a "premium" product or a longer-term solution for a much healthier, cheaper, locally grown food supply chain? How much greater yields can you achieve farming vertically? Jamie talks us through these questions as well as his firm's impressive growth profile and capital raising success to expand the future of farming.
