In this episode of Hardware to Save a Planet, Dylan is joined by Devon Wright, Co-Founder and CEO of Lumo, a California-based Agtech company providing an irrigation system that offers a wireless, cloud-managed water valve network, enabling growers to conserve groundwater while improving crop quality and reducing overhead costs.

Devon has a successful startup and exit behind him and is an advisor and investor in many more. He has raised just over two million as pre-seed capital for Lumo. He is a frequent speaker on entrepreneurship and tech, and has written articles on irrigation that have been featured in Wall Street Journal, Forbes, and Bloomberg.
