Wartime entrepreneurship: The Israeli startup tackling a global agricultural challenge | CTech
CoverDolly, a startup founded by Ora Peled Nakash, Gilad Meller, and Ahi Sitbon, is developing an automated solution for covering greenhouses. The company was inspired by the challenges faced by a local farmer during wartime, highlighting the need for efficient agricultural solutions. CoverDolly received an initial investment of 200,000 shekels from the Israel Innovation Authority and additional funds from friends and family. The startup aims to address the global shortage of skilled labor in agriculture by creating a machine to cover greenhouses, a task traditionally done by skilled workers. The company is currently working on its first prototype and plans to connect with Izhar Shays Next October initiative for further business opportunities and investment.
