​About Bluegrass AgTech Development Corp

​In 2022, Bluegrass AgTech Development Corp was established by a group of leading civic, farming and research entities: the Lexington-Fayette Urban County Government, the Kentucky Department of Agriculture, the University of Kentucky Martin-Gatton College of Agriculture, Food and Environment, and Alltech. Our goal? To help make Kentucky the agricultural technology capital of the United States. This goal is ambitious but attainable. Our state is already emerging as a leader in the industry, and Bluegrass AgTech provides a uniquely effective ecosystem for accelerating that growth, with multiple benefits to our state and its people.

​About Startup Breakfast

​Being a startup entrepreneur is a difficult and lonely job! Sometimes you are lost, confused, frustrated, disappointed, scared, or just need help. Sometimes you have something to celebrate! You definitely have a skill or experience that could benefit your colleagues! Startup Breakfast is an informal meeting of Startup entrepreneurs and leaders - an opportunity to be a part of the Lexington startup community. The goal is networking and peer-to-peer mentoring for the startup community.
