And that didn't really have too much involved with sharing. But I did manage to see that there was a big, big problem with all the agri food supply chain from start to finish. And that made me look into it a lot further." "We started with a minimal viable product that we've produced ourselves in different places. And now we're working on the construction of the final or the first co-working vertical farming co-working in Madrid. It's about 400. It will have the capability of doing all four areas that we think are essential." "Well, obviously the biggest challenge is what you said basically is training the Duran farmers and making sure that the produce is high quality and comes out with the help of all these urban farmers, local uber farmers. So that's going to be the big challenge."
