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/

It existed at least in 2006 in Serbia, and probably few years before that. Operated by Swiss CryoSave company. It was upfront lifetime payment, something around 2000EUR. Although this price was more affordable than cumulative monthly payments, there was a scandal with that company. I think they bankrupted, but some Polish cryo bank took the bio material. So maybe upfront payment is not that sustainable (who would have thought?).

Btw. we deposited stem cells for our second child born in 2010, and when this scandal happened I tried not to think too much about it and just be grateful that we don't need that material. It should be still safe in that other bank though.

Amazing! So glad you did

I use it for many years and I have to say I love it

For those who don't know it (like me): AgTech = Agriculture Technology

Any other outlets for AgTech?

There is Digital Knights who offer exactly that http://digitalknights.co/

Apple watch. Actually it's more than a gadget for me now. It's quite convenient for taking calls, managing music, messages etc.

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.

Please share your thoughts on the idea and product. Thanks!

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?

Thanks, are there any European conferences that you would recommend? We're from (Poland)

World Agri-Tech Investment Summit - London (2 weeks ago) - still worth researching the agenda/speakers/sponsors for prospective partners & clients > http://worldagritechinvestment.com/

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?
