Peter Goggin, the Co-Founder and Vice-President of Operations at Resson, will speak Wednesday at the Cybersocial in Moncton.

The free event will take place at the Venn Centre on Main Street, starting at 5 pm.  

Goggin and his co-founder Rishin Behl established Fredericton-based Resson four years ago to create software that would assess data from a range of sources on a farm. They developed a system called RAMAS, which collects data from such sources as tractors, sensors buried in the field, and aerial drones flying over the field. It brings all the information together and presents the farmer with a report on what is happening in his field and what actions need to be taken.

The company sprang to prominence last summer when it announced a $14 million round of funding, led by the VC arm of Monsanto, the St. Louis-based agrichemical and agritech giant.

The Cybersocial organizers say Resson is doing all sorts of big projects in New Zealand, India, U.S.A. and Argentina and plan to double staff in the next few months.
