This growing season we logged thousands of service hours with our robots and collected terabytes of data. 

At Aigen we don't just collect data and analyze data, we take action. We solve real world problems and close the loop ➰ for continuous improvements.

Physical World 2.0: When tech makes a tangible impact.  

Today, software is changing our physical environment, driven by breakthroughs in artificial intelligence, material sciences, and advanced sensor technology. These innovations are prominent within the PNW, paving the way for a new era of hardware.

Following this theme, below is a market map Nate Bek and I created to capture ~50 companies who embody building in the physical world.

There are hundreds of different pesticides (pesticides include herbicides) sprayed on the food we eat. Many are known to cause short-term and chronic health problems.

It’s not often the EPA regulates them; however an emergency order was placed yesterday to ban the use of a herbicide, DCPA. The herbicide has been banned in the European Union since 2009.

This is a big deal. 💥

“In this case, pregnant women who may never even know they were exposed could give birth to babies that experience irreversible lifelong health problems.”

“The suspension came after more than a decade of back-and-forth between the EPA and the sole manufacturer of DCPA, the AMVAC Chemical Corporation.”

"Mily Treviño Sauceda, executive director of Alianza Nacional de Campesinas, a national organization of women farmworkers, called the EPA’s decision 'historic.'"

Could Roundup be next?
