Rubber plantations also provides plenty of opportunities for automating the cutting, collection processes. It is always good moving up in the value chain, as it protects the farmers from price volatility. There are entrepreneurial opportunists in value addition of rubber.

‘Leveraging Private Finance to Scale Urban Service Delivery’ at the CityFix Labs final event in Hyderabad on the 4th. During TheCityFix Labs journey, we realised that there is tremendous interest from all the stakeholders (government, investors, citizens and enterprises) in this topic and also, several unanswered questions. So, as we come to the close of our accelerator, we decided to discuss this very important and intriguing subject with a key subset of the stakeholders – government and investors- you all. For the discussion we will use the simple panel format- I will ask questions, you will answer and hopefully, somewhere along the process we can instigate a thought-provoking debate. We will also try to make it interactive by involving the audience.
