Intelligent Growth Solutions (IGS), founded in 2013 in Scotland, is a frontrunner in the vertical farming sector, focusing exclusively on developing world-class technology rather than commercial crop production. This strategic choice allows IGS to concentrate on continuous innovation in Total Controlled Environment Agriculture (TCEA). Their pioneering technology ensures consistent crop yields by automating farm environments and minimizing labor, pest, and disease risks.
IGS has garnered attention with its scalable modular systems adaptable to various grower needs, from a few towers to expansive GigaFarm operations. The company is actively deploying its technology across multiple continents, forming close partnerships with growers to support sustainable, high-quality plant production regardless of external conditions.
In 2023, IGS achieved B Corp status, affirming its commitment to environmental and social excellence. Its recent £22.50M Series C investment, led by Cleveland Avenue, S2G Ventures, and others, underscores investor faith in IGS's transformative role in Agriculture and AgriTech.
