On of the highlights of Sival Angers 2023 for us: our stand received a distinguished guest! Marc Fesneau, Minister for Agriculture and Food Sovereignty, visited us on Wednesday, during the second day of the show.

"We had a very interesting conversation and I was impressed by the Minister's interest in new technologies," said Claude Juriens, our Chief Business Officer. Mr. Fesneau and our team talked about the drastic reduction of IFT in the field thanks to our ultra-precise spraying.

Hello partners đź‘‹

Trade fairs are the best time to meet people we regularly work with. Several partners came to say hello on our stand: thanks to BCO, Promodis, Groupe David, MAC Gabillet, Groupe MĂ©thivier, Jarny and Eureden for your visits!

Good media exposure

Our gold medal at the SIVAL Innovation 2023 competition has earned us a lot of media interest. Ecorobotix has been quoted in an impressive number of articles, which means substantial visibility for our technology and our products.

On 25 January, our Area Manager for France and Belgium SĂ©bastien Branche took part in the RDV Agri programme by the Youtubeur Thierry Baillet. The theme: robotics and its relationship to farmers (in French).
