  • Position Founder and CEO of VensoGrow

Caecilia Potter is the Founder and CEO of VensoGrow, an AI-driven AgTech company pioneering BreezeCoat™, a patented, dust-free agri-coating platform technology that delivers biological and nutritional actives in controlled layers to improve nutrient use efficiency, microbial shelf-life and crop performance while reducing waste and emissions.

She founded VensoGrow to commercialise the pioneering research of her late father, Emeritus Professor Owen Potter (co-founder of ICHemE in Victoria and past Chair), and has since led the company through pilot deployment, multimillion-dollar investment and government support, and partnerships with major industry players.

She is an AICD graduate, Wade Institute VC Catalyst alumna, Fellow of the Design Institute of Australia, Cranlana ethical leadership alumna, and an active angel investor focused on high-impact innovation - and enjoys cooking, gardening, art, travel and an active lifestyle.
