This is something that exists in Poland from at least 2017. I've done it for 2 of my children. Setup cost 700usd (based on package), yearly 200 usd - https://www.pbkm.pl/
A big one for me was to finally put a product out that I've created http://www.curie.me/.
I never was able to finish anything. With Curie it's also an important one for me, and probably because of that I was so determinated do finish it.
One of the biggest reasons was that I knew that the product could help other prevent having the same back problems as I had.
I worked on Curie with 3 other co-founders for nearly 1,5 years now after hours, but we never had the energy or time to get it done. Because I was feeling that my teammates didn't put so much effort in it I finally decided after a couple of month trying to motivate them to let them go. As you can imagine it was really hard to do that, and I felt in a kind of depression about that I knew I needed to be make Curie happen.
Now it's in open beta and soon we'll be launching a chrome extension.
Sure, that's a good idea, but a little bit time consuming and we would like to start with our own product next year. How do you identify specific issues that you can tackle in AgTech?
I get that you have to network with people. My question was if there is something that you need to do differently that the standard way of networking, attending conferences etc?
What are the tips that can help you get domain knowledge faster?
Actually both team are not split into technology stacks, but rather interdisciplinary teams like one for Marketing and the other one for Sales. Each of them building some different functionality in Ruby and .NET. In each team there is like 1 .NET developer and Ruby dev, and this causes an issue when someone wants to go on holiday, as the team practically stops development.
Unifying technology eliminates or reduces that risk.
