Shipshape AgWorks

You guys, look what we did!! 🌱🏆

Shipshape AgWorks won our category at Sloss.Tech/Ideas!

We took the stage in with a message close to our hearts: food is infrastructure. Fresh food, skilled jobs, education, local production, and community resilience are all connected.

That message starts right here at home.

As we continue developing our next project in our hometown , this win gives us more momentum for the work ahead.

Thank you to Sloss Tech, the Ideas team, judges, sponsors, organizers, mentors, and everyone who made the event possible. Congratulations to the other winners and finalists. We were proud to share the stage with you.

The .tech festivities are still going strong!

We’re sitting down with our friend Jeremy Tidmore of Tradewinds Software Corporation oration to discuss From Fields to the Future: Building Tech for Rural Industries.

This session looks at what it really takes to bring technology into agriculture and rural operations, where innovation has to work beyond the pitch deck: limited connectivity, aging infrastructure, established processes, and real-world constraints.

That is where Shipshape AgWorks lives.

We are building food and farm infrastructure that can serve communities where they are, from urban centers to rural economies across Alabama and the Southeast.

Thanks to Innovate Alabama for sponsoring this event!
