AirAgri Services Pty Ltd
Australia​

At AirAgri, we’re on a mission to bring farmers home safely every day. Our solution tackles one of agriculture’s biggest risks—working alone in remote, high-risk environments. Unlike top-down compliance tools, we take a bottom-up approach, empowering farmers with real-time, property-specific safety insights, intelligent alerts, and automated emergency escalation. By blending AI, IoT, and contextual awareness, we turn everyday risk into informed decision-making—right from the paddock. AirAgri isn’t just tech; it’s a trusted companion built for the realities of rural life, reshaping farm safety from the ground up and safeguarding the future of those who feed us all.

BioScout
Australia

BioScout is an agricultural technology company from Australia. We are experts in plant protection and have developed a cutting-edge early-warning system for airborne fungal diseases, including an intuitive disease management platform, to help agribusinesses gain unprecedented control over fungal infections. We collect farm-level data on airborne particulates and microclimate to send our clients infection risk alerts, allowing them to control fungal diseases proactively. We manufacture our systems in Australia. The technology has been validated across a broad range of crops and diseases for over three years and has witnessed the harshest natural environments.

Forte Biotech Pte. Ltd.
Singapore​

Forte Biotech develops a molecular diagnostics platform that enables farmers to detect diseases on-site, quickly and affordably. Our RAPID test kits use LAMP technology and are designed for use in remote, low-resource farm settings. While currently focused on prawn farming, the platform is adaptable to other livestock species. By enabling earlier intervention, we help farmers improve survival rates, reduce antibiotic use, and optimize feed conversion—making farms more efficient and sustainable. Better farm health management means fewer losses, lower emissions, and a smaller environmental footprint.

This system removes cost and complexity from the supply chain, delivers fresher, higher-performing milk, and lays the groundwork for a smarter way to deliver milk.
