About the event

As climate change pushes our food systems to their limits, traditional solutions no longer suffice. CRISPR is leading a revolutionary change, enhancing agricultural productivity and resilience for an unpredictable future.

Terragenome Ventures is bringing together leading experts in science, law, and finance to chart the future of food. This event will go beyond theoretical discussions and present CRISPR-driven technologies that are transforming the world's largest food and agriculture companies in response to supply chain disruptions and climate challenges.

🌟 The Lineup

Our engaging panel will cover four essential pillars of the industry:

  • The Capital: Rob Galbraith from Builders Vision discusses why agriculture is becoming a climate-critical asset for investors.
  • The Guardrails: Dr. Meghan McLean Poon (Morrison & Foerster) navigates IP and regulatory pathways to market.
  • The Science: Dr. Maria Florencia Ercoli (UC Riverside & Innovative Genomics Institute) shares insights on enhancing climate-resilient agriculture through genome editing and plant-microbe synergy.
  • The Blueprint: Mary Louise Gifford from Terragenome Ventures outlines how SynBio, AI, and farming can converge to create new solutions.

Moderated by Daphne de Jong (Terragenome Ventures), this session promises to be lively, informative, and focused on the future.

In addition to the panel, attendees can explore the Partner Showcase, featuring innovative Bay Area startups and organizations utilizing CRISPR in agriculture. This is a unique chance to connect directly with founders, scientists, and leaders driving the evolution of resilient agricultural practices.

Walk away with a comprehensive understanding of investment trends and the breakout platforms set to define the next decade of ag-tech.

Hosted by Silicon Valley Bank, doors open at 4:30 PM, and the panel kicks off at 5 PM. 🚪✨
