The company Myronivsky Hliboproduct (MHP) together with the technological cluster Radar Tech launches the accelerator of agrarian innovations.

This was reported by the co-founder of Radar Tech Julia Poroshenko at the final of the corporate telecom-accelerator 2.0 Radar Tech, which is implemented with the support of Kyivstar.

"When we conceived the development of Radar Tech, we pursued the goal of manufacturing a technological cluster that would unite industry accelerators. Today I'm glad to announce that we are launching a new accelerator of agrarian innovations. Our partner in this project is the company Myronivsky Hliboproduct. There is a stereotype that the agrarian sector is not very modern and not receptive to innovation. We want to challenge this myth by offering our new project. There are many countries that do not have land resources, they have bad weather conditions, but they have become leaders in the food market. And this happened thanks to the introduction of modern innovations. I am now talking about countries such as Israel, Norway, the Netherlands, Iceland. Imagine what results we can achieve in Ukraine, provided that innovations are integrated into the industry," she noted.

According to her, the vertically integrated structure of MHP with a full production cycle will contribute to a wide range of innovations.

"We will select 25 teams that will be accelerated. We will choose 10 among them, which will go to a full-fledged acceleration. Winners will be able to cooperate with MHP," explained Julia Poroshenko.

According to Ksenia Prozhogina, HR Director of MHP, the company has two goals for participation in the project.

"First, innovations are more likely to be born in start-ups than in corporations. But in the latter there are all resources in order to promote the development of new products. Being rich, but a little lazy, we decided to support this project. The second idea is that we, the integrally vertical holding, want such projects not only to be created here, but also to ensure that our Ukrainian talented youth remain in Ukraine, becoming a part of these start-ups. Therefore, we are ready to invest," she added.
