X2.0 has selected ten promising AgriTech startups that play an important role in advancing precision agriculture technologies, including beekeeping and chemical spraying with AI support. These companies are helping to reduce waste, disease, and risk in agriculture while increasing yields. The selected startups are: Agrovisio OU (Estonia), Flypard Analytics GmbH (Germany), Silklytics (Estonia), Beehold (Serbia), ATAR AI (Serbia), Agricom.io (Ireland), Databaum (Germany), Ficosterra (Spain) and Veles Sense (Serbia).
It is noteworthy that 80% of the selected startups have women in their core team. This underlines X2.0's commitment to gender diversity. Special support is also offered to startups from so-called widening countries to strengthen their business opportunities and innovation practices. In the second Open Call, the majority of the selected startups are from such countries.
Innovation and Sustainability in the HealthTech and BioTech Sectors
X2.0 responds to changes in the healthcare sector by mentoring startups to manage market disruption and make effective decisions. The goal is to strengthen European BioTech startups, as investments in this sector are more limited in Europe compared to the US.

The selected startups will receive access to €30,000 in innovation vouchers as well as mentoring and scaling services.
