Last week Vertical Future hosted a group of Year 12 students at our R&D site in Deptford, South East London

It was a genuine pleasure spending time with such an enthusiastic bunch and we hope we've inspired a new generation to think about working in the vertical farming technology sector!

The students, who are currently studying BTEC Applied Science at local 6th form college Christ The King Emmanuel School, took part in seminars on Genetics and photosynthesis, a careers session, a tour of our R&D farm, and, they also did a data modelling session for over 5 hours.

This is a great way for Vertical Future to connect with a vibrant local community where opportunities may be in short supply. We will be hosting another session for the school’s students next Spring and potentially next Autumn too, so lots more to come!
