The Tech Builder Experience
Description
Moving from a working prototype to a scalable, reliable product is one of the toughest challenges in AgTech. This session explores what it really takes to industrialize robotic solutions, across engineering, manufacturing, distribution, and support. Through the perspectives of companies that have begun to scale, we’ll discuss key hurdles, critical decisions, and common pitfalls. A practical look at how to move beyond pilots and into real market deployment, without losing control of costs, quality, or operations.

The Tech Builder Experience
Description
While much of the AgTech conversation focuses on on-farm ROI, the long-term economic vitality of agricultural economies will depend on how well regions capture the broader \"AgTech multiplier.\" This session will focus on early attempts to understand regional economic impact analysis and explore how investments in autonomous systems may be able to seed a new economy for Washington and agriculture broadly - from specialized robotics maintenance hubs to localized data-processing centers. The goal is to move the discussion from \"cost-savings for growers\" to \"wealth-building for the region,\" featuring a roundtable with VCs, regional development officers, local bankers, and industrial site developers as well as industry leaders.
