Ag-tech entrepreneur is back with a new startup
Summary
Corbett Kull helped bring Big Data to the business of farming with his first startup, 640 Labs, which he sold to Climate Corp. about four years ago. Kull has built an online marketplace to match farmers looking for more land to work with owners of farmland who don’t want to farm. The company, Tillable, raised $8.25 million, led by the Production Board, a San Francisco-based incubator and holding company launched by David Friedberg, a serial internet entrepreneur who founded and was CEO of Climate Corp. Also investing is First Round Capital, a San Francisco fund that backed Climate, Uber, Hotel Tonight, Ring, Square and Warby Parker. Kull says Tillable is the first to create a two-sided online platform that brings farmers and landowners together and, ultimately, provide pricing data and analytics. AcreValue, a San Francisco-based company, provides online pricing reports for farmland in California, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska, Ohio and Wisconsin.
