The future of food & agriculture is collaboration

TERRA, Rabobank and RocketSpace’s next-generation accelerator, is a bridge between forward-thinking corporates and industry-disrupting startups looking to scale. The 4-month program enables startups and corporates to co-develop new products, adapt technologies to new industries, build lasting commercial partners and more.

Intrigued? Applications are now open for Cohort IV, and it only takes 5 minutes to apply. The program does not require equity to participate. If selected, you’ll work with a corporate collaborator to co-create the parameters of your pilot partnership. Submit your application by Sunday, May 12 and read on to learn more about the program and hear from a recent TERRA startup alum.

What is an example of a corporate / startup collaboration?

In TERRA’s recent Cohort, Swarm Engineering, a food and ag blockchain startup, collaborated with Australian grain giant GrainCorp.

“Being part of TERRA and working with GrainCorp has helped us significantly. We really moved the product forward and potentially got a new customer in GrainCorp. We also met a VC firm interested in us and made a series of great introductions in the TERRA network. The experience has been very powerful on both the customer and network side. Bottom line, TERRA has exceeded our expectations. Get your applications in now, as the program is going to get more competitive.”
