AgWarriors Ep. 49 | From Electrician to AgTech Entrepreneur

Kyle Folk did not follow a traditional route into agriculture. From aspiring filmmaker to electrician to agtech entrepreneur, his career has evolved through bold decisions and unexpected opportunities.In this episode, Folk joins host Jeremy Matuszewski at the recent Agritechnica show to share how his Canadian farming roots eventually drew him back to agriculture, even after years spent building and operating an electrical business. While starting a family, taking on a mortgage and attending school, he felt a strong pull to pursue something more. That drive led him back to the farm, where a business idea began to develop. After keeping the concept on hold for two years, a pitch program inspired him to move forward. That step ultimately grew into a successful software company, which he later sold. Today, Folk is dedicating his time and experience to supporting another agricultural business.Listen through the final minutes to hear his advice on entrepreneurship, risk-taking and the principles that helped shape his success.Connect with the AgWarriors Podcast across social media: Instagram: @ag.warriorsYouTube: @AgWarriorsPodcastFacebook: @AG WarriorsTiktok: @ag_warriors
