*Sprout Lab: growing your agribusiness idea* is a pilot program focused on
supporting innovators in Michigan's Ag/Natural Resource sector.

We know growers are innovative!  Sprout Lab's 3-day workshop is a focused
opportunity to explore the commercial potential of your Ag-related
technology idea or tool prototype.  Anything to do with improving on-farm
operations, plant growth, water/energy use, etc.  You will leave the
workshop clear about next steps, and connected to regional resources that
will help you develop your idea.

Two regional workshops, developed by GVSU & SVSU, are scheduled:
*Grand Rapids (on GVSU's downtown campus): November 4-6*
Saginaw (at SVSU's campus):  January 10-12

*Discounts available* for Michigan Farm Bureau members, FFA members,
students, and others.  See the program overview at www.SproutLab.org, and
register there.  Sprout Lab is funded by a grant from the Michigan
Initiative for Innovation & Entrepreneurship.
