LettUs Grow wins a top spot in EnviroTech 50 – UK’s most innovative green technology creators
On 9th May, BusinessCloud revealed the winners of the EnviroTech 50 – UK’s most innovative green technology creators. The top three companies were: Dsposal, IPG London, and LettUs Grow.
The EnviroTech 50 Awards celebrates and champions the entrepreneurial journeys of the UK companies creating original technology for green energy, environmental protection and sustainability.
There was some stiff competition. The top spot was taken by Dsposal, a compliance-focused digital waste tracking platform, followed by IPG London and LettUs Grow.
LettUs Grow is an indoor farming technology provider based in Bristol, UK. They believe that careful innovation in farming can make the world a better place. LettUs Grow’s ultrasonic aeroponic irrigation systems allow farmers to grow up to twice as fast as hydroponics, while using zero soil, zero pesticides, as well as less water and fertiliser than in outdoor farming.
The DROP & GROW™ container farm allows anyone to grow local, sustainable food 365 days of the year, whilst Aeroponic Rolling Benches™ are set to bring the benefits of aeroponics to hectare-scale greenhouses and vertical farms.
LettUs Grow conducts world leading research into controlled environment agriculture from their research centre in Bristol, working with partners such as John Innes Centre, Harper Adams University & Agritecture. The team achieved B Corp status in 2022 and are dedicated to improving food systems by working towards a future where affordable, healthy food can be grown with minimal impact on the planet.
Following the creation of a 107-strong shortlist, the final ranking has been decided by a combination of selections from an independent judging panel and a public vote among readers of BusinessCloud which attracted hundreds of votes.
Jack Farmer, one of LettUs Grow’s three founders, had this to say about the win: “We’re pleased to have placed so highly in the EnviroTech 50 Awards - especially with such a high calibre of applicants. It’s brilliant to see the UK’s green tech scene thriving!”
