Alex Mann

 

Join us on Thursday, March 30, as Alex Mann lays out the collaboration between technology and agriculture.

About the speaker:

Growing up in rural Virginia amid vineyards, orchards, farms, and the Blue Ridge provided Alex Mann with exposure to a multitude of growing environments and practices. He assisted with commercial agriculture installations in California as well as being a harvest intern at two local wineries for multiple seasons. Inspired by a love of nature, a mind for science, and a desire to make a positive impact on the planet, Smart Grow AgriTech was born in 2018. Since then he has gone full time in the Ag sector partnering with Pure Shenandoah, one of Virginia’s leading hemp companies, and recently turned his focus on carbon offset generation and blockchain technology.
