PES Technologies: How Innovate UK helped a soil sensor startup grow

🚜AgriScale pilot programme launched by Defra Minister, Dame Angela Eagle. We’re pleased to see the UK government’s AgriScale programme unveiled to accelerate growth for businesses through addressing specific manufacturing challenges on their start-up to scale-up journey. “This will help to drive accelerated development of new technologies and support growth of this key sector. AgriScale also represents a new cross-UK Government partnership, powered by the Industrial Strategy and inspired by experience from the automotive sector," Minister Eagle said in her keynote speech at the World Agri-Tech Innovation Summit. We’ll work with Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, Innovate UK, and High Value Manufacturing Catapult partner, the MTC - Manufacturing Technology Centre, to deliver tailored support to five UK businesses, helping accelerate their technologies from concept to market.

🌱 Earlier this week, Rob Bentham attended the AgriTech Innovation Summit in London. We caught up with him to hear his top takeaways from the event: 🔹 ROI is more critical than ever While not a new theme, it's increasingly clear that agricultural technologies must demonstrate a tangible and immediate return on investment. With farmers more focused than ever on managing costs, solutions need to deliver real financial value from day one. 🔹 Customer validation is essential Successful adoption hinges on real-world testing and validation. AgTech providers must prioritise practical, farmer-approved solutions—especially as farmers are often the first investors and remain cautious about high-cost, unproven technologies. 🔹 The growing importance of partnerships Collaboration across the sector is proving key to progress. Strategic partnerships are helping organisations pool expertise, share resources, and accelerate innovation—bringing smarter solutions to market faster.
