Grit Road Partners

Starting in 2021, Grit Road Partners is a Midwest-based team that invests in gritty, early stage Ag Tech start-ups that are looking to solve Midwest Producers Problems. Our mission is to serve as the leading catalyst to build and strengthen the AgTech ecosystem globally and ultimately make the Midwest, the global hub of AgTech. At Grit Road Partners, we back teams building real solutions for real producers. Our two funds invest in the next generation of AgTech, the tools, systems, and technologies that help farmers work smarter, run leaner, and earn more. We are proud to build on the Midwest’s long history of agricultural strength. By tapping into the region’s deep roots and strong industry partnerships, we help push AgTech forward faster than ever. Our funds use our access, experience, and network to find and support exceptional Midwest entrepreneurs with one clear goal. We want to make the Midwest the global home of AgTech. Farmer First Approach We take a farmer-first approach to investing. We look for innovations that make farms more efficient, sustainable, and profitable, the kind of solutions that make a real difference in a producer’s day. Backed by a strong leadership team, an active investment committee, and a trusted network of advisors, we use our access and experience to find and back the best founders in AgTech. At Grit Road Partners, we invest in companies built to scale, drive meaningful change, and deliver strong returns. As we grow, we continue to build a network of producers, investors, and service providers working together to move agriculture forward.
