In an increasingly digital world, you have to appreciate people who work with their hands-artists, tailors, buildings, designers, cooks. I-m joined on this episode by Sky Kurtz, co-founder - CEO of Pure Harvest, a new breed of tech startups that has raised $50 million to build high-tech greenhouses. We talk about how he got started with entrepreneurship after graduating from Stanford, moving to the UAE and eventually setting up Pure Harvest with a -demo- farm based on which he raised his first $5.8 million from 31 investors. I believe Sky is on a path to build a unicorn in the region (a business valued at over $1 billion). Listen in to hear why he believes education was his ticket to get somewhere in life and how he-s looking to send the elevator back down and give back. Learn more about your ad choices.
