Pennsauken, NJ – BioDome Inc., a pioneering startup leading the transformation of urban landscapes with its innovative rooftop farming model, is proud to announce that its Founder and CEO, Jerah Siegal, has been named one of New Jersey’s top innovators of the year. This prestigious recognition was reported by NJ Business Magazine in their latest coverage of the state’s vibrant innovation ecosystem NJ Business Magazine article.
Under Jerah’s visionary leadership, BioDome Inc. has revolutionized the concept of urban agriculture. The company strategically installs indoor farms on the rooftops of commercial buildings—including multi-unit apartment buildings, office complexes, schools, and food banks. This unique approach not only optimizes underutilized space but also significantly reduces the environmental impact associated with traditional farming and transportation of produce.
The benefits of BioDome’s model extend beyond environmental impact; it also offers a subscription-based service that provides fresh, locally-sourced fruits and vegetables to city dwellers, mirroring a crop share association but with greater accessibility and convenience. It’s not farm-to-table; it’s rooftop-to-table.
The Innovate New Jersey, Innovate100 recognition celebrates individuals and companies that drive innovation and contribute significantly to their communities and sectors. Jerah’s inclusion in this list underscores his commitment to sustainable development and his impactful contributions to urban living standards.
“I am deeply honored to be recognized among such talented and forward-thinking leaders. This accolade is a testament to our team’s hard work and dedication to reimagining how cities can become more sustainable and self-sufficient,” said Jerah Siegal. “At BioDome, we believe in building a future where everyone has access to fresh and healthy food.”
BioDome Inc. invites the community to learn more about this innovative model and join the sustainable urban agriculture movement. For further details about the event on May 14th and Innovate New Jersey, please visit Innovate New Jersey website.
