    Pitch Details

    The Problem Urban areas face rising food insecurity and long supply chains that increase costs and carbon emissions. Rooftop spaces remain largely unused while populations continue to grow. The Solution AquaHarvest integrates aquaponics — combining fish farming with hydroponic plant growth — into compact, modular systems that fit on rooftops, balconies, and small plots, producing fresh vegetables and fish year-round. How It Works Closed-Loop Ecosystem: Fish waste provides nutrients for plants, and plants purify water for the fish. Modular Design: Easily scalable units for homes, schools, and commercial buildings. Smart Monitoring: IoT sensors track water quality, plant growth, and fish health. Low Energy Consumption: Solar panels and efficient pumps reduce operational costs. Why AquaHarvest? Cuts down food miles dramatically. Provides sustainable protein and vegetables locally. Educates communities about eco-friendly farming. Key Benefits Local, fresh food production. Lower carbon footprint. Income opportunities for urban residents. Scalable for any city worldwide. Join Us in Growing the Future At AquaHarvest, we believe food security starts locally. Let’s transform unused city spaces into thriving ecosystems.
