BE PART OF GROWING SUSSEX

Growing Sussex: growers, colleges, suppliers, vendors developing new products and services to transform food, drink and plant production

Are you a Sussex-based grower interested in deploying digital technologies to support sustainable production of your produce?

We are inviting interested growers from West and East Sussex to apply to join a pipeline of participants supporting the project by working with the colleges to steer technology and skills development. These will be in response to ‘real world’ demand for growing applications that are deployed over digital connectivity. As a condition of the scheme you will collaborate with the relevant college(s) to provide learning opportunities and possible placements for students and to ensure that the technologies you are deploying inform the curriculums accordingly.

We will ask you to contribute to regular reporting that West Sussex County Council (WSCC) will undertake to report on progress and learning from the project.
