Here's a great recap from last week's event, PLANETech - Climate Change Technologies in Tel Aviv. Thank you, Maayan Gossat Schwartz, for your insightful questions, and thanks to Impact Nation team for initiating and showcasing this interview.
One standout attendee at this year’s PLANETech - Climate Change Technologies conference in Tel Aviv was Platypus, led by CEO Gilad Yarkoni. Yarkoni aims to transform pest management and offer a safer, more sustainable alternative to traditional pesticides. Yarkoni explained to the Impact Nation team what sets Platypus apart: a two-pronged approach. First, they offer extended-release natural pest control methods (essential oils, pheromones), reducing reliance on harsh chemicals. They’ve also eliminated the need for complex formulations, instead offering a pre-mixed base – an industry first! Freeing ourselves entirely from harmful pesticides is no easy task, but Platypus is clearly up to the challenge! #PLANETech2024 #ImpactNation #sustainability #climateaction #pestmanagement #environmentalimpact #naturalsolutions #Platypus
