Vertical farms can boost community engagement while making good use of vacant urban spaces, the founder of a vertical farming start up says.
InvertiGro founder and CEO Ben Lee will showcase vertical farming, which makes use of urban space to grow food, at the City of Sydney’s Emergent 2050 expo next month.
Mr Lee says the functional nature of vertical farms distinguishes them from vertical gardens, which are more ornamental.
Nanoco Group PLC (LON:NANO) leads the world in the research, development and large-scale manufacture of heavy metal-free nanomaterials for use in displays, lighting, vertical farming, solar energy and bio-imaging.
