The Tecnológico de Monterrey, the company Agrosuper S.A. and the Pacific Alliance invite Science and Technology Startups from the Pacific Alliance that have solutions for water scarcity and efficiency in animal breeding processes and processing plants to participate in the Open Call “Innovation Challenges for Sustainable Agriculture”.
The open call aims to identify startups that have technological solutions and can develop a Minimum Viable Product in 3 months to solve water scarcity and efficiency in animal breeding processes and processing plants. The goal is to implement the solution under an open innovation model with the participation of the startup, researchers from the Water Center for Latin America and the Caribbean (CAALCA) of the Tecnológico de Monterrey and the Chilean company Agrosuper S.A.
The open call seeks a solution to the following challenges:
Recovery/reuse of process water with the goal of having a closed water cycle.
Products/processes to decrease water consumption involved in process plant cleaning.
Water treatment solutions.
Technologies aimed at energy efficiency in refrigeration and freezing systems in industrial plants.
