@KWS_Group’s Wiegelmann: For startups and corporates to work well together everyone has to win.
They have to complement each other. #FarmFood40 #DigitalTransformation

[SmartHectar Innovation @smarthectar]

@KWS_Group VP Alexander Wiegelmann:
“Market timing is as important as technology and the team when it comes to investment in startups.

Corporate companies need to build trust and communication with startups, offer supports eg. IP checks” #FarmFood40 #Digitalisierung #Startups
