Intelligent Growth Solutions

Founded in 2013, IGS brought together decades of farming and engineering experience to create an agritech business with a vision to revolutionise the indoor growing market. Its commitment to innovation has continued apace to develop patented vertical farm technology which delivers solutions designed to drive efficiency and create an indoor environment with economy and simplicity at its heart.

Headquartered in Scotland, IGS launched its Crop Research Centre in Invergowrie, Dundee, in 2018 and Engineering Innovation Centre in Inverkeithing, Fife, in 2021. The business has active customers in North America, Europe and the Middle East.

IGS holds more than 25 granted patents for its unique vertical farm technology, blending science and agriculture by using smart technology to automatically apply recipes to create the perfect environment for crop growth. Currently, more than 250 crops can be successfully grown inside an IGS vertical farm.

iOpt Assets

With its award-winning intuitive system allows for real time asset monitoring, iOpt’s non-invasive IoT technology helps identify – and predict – potential problems in social housing stock.

Detect:  iOpt sensors offer real-time information about the condition of a property. This allows for predictive and proactive maintenance as well as better planning and more informed decisions regarding a tenant and their property.

Prevent: With real-time visibility of the conditions and usage of housing stock, social landlords have all the information they need to make informed decisions when it comes to diagnosing potential issues, handling tenant complaints and deciding which properties need repairs most urgently.

Protect: With an alert to highlight potential issues before they arise, landlords can ensure healthier buildings, but more importantly, healthier tenants. It’s well-document how damp and mould can affect tenants and has been directly linked to an increased likelihood of asthma in children, so identifying these problems early can improve the tenants quality of life as well as the value of the asset.
