Case Study: Micron Agritech
Micron Agritech is an Irish Startup founded in 2019 by Sean Smith, Daniel Izquierdo, Tara McElligott and Jose Lopez while they were undergraduates at Technological University Dublin.
They spun-out of the university with their revolutionary parasite testing technology. Initially, development of Micron Kit was funded with competition prize money that the team had won and with Competitive Startup Funding from Enterprise Ireland.
The founders went on to showcase their award-winning tech at Europe’s largest agricultural show, the Irish National Ploughing Championships in
2019. Since then, the Micron Agritech team has expanded to a total of 9 people and they have raised a seed round of €500,000.
