2019 AgFunder AgriFood Tech Innovation Awards Winners Announced

March 21, 2019

The winners of the 2019 AgFunder AgriFood Tech Innovation Awards were announced on Wednesday, March 20 at the ReThink Innovation Week in San Francisco, CA.

Last year, we awarded 12 startups in 12 categories across Farm Tech, Supply Chain, and Retail & Consumer Innovation. Since then those winners have raised over $420 million, including a $114 million bridge round for Impossible Foods and a $13 million Series A for Trace Genomics, which AgFunder went on to invest in.

This year we followed the same process as last, whereby we asked you to vote for the winner in each category. The shortlist was nominated by this year’s awards committee, a who’s who of agrifood tech venture capital. Roughly 3,000 votes later, these are the winners.
