About

CropX was founded in 2014 in Tel Aviv, Israel, with the mission of helping farmers improve crop yields and reduce resource consumption through precision agriculture technology. The company developed soil sensing hardware and analytics software that translate subsurface soil data into actionable irrigation and nutrient management recommendations, enabling farms of any size to optimize inputs based on actual field conditions rather than generalized agronomic guidelines.\n\nCropX's platform combines wireless soil sensors that measure moisture, temperature, and electrical conductivity at multiple depths with a cloud-based analytics engine that integrates weather data, satellite imagery, and farm management records. Recommendations are delivered via a mobile app, enabling farm managers to make data-driven irrigation decisions in real time. The 2023 acquisition of Regen added 130,000 acres of managed farmland to its platform and expanded its capabilities in carbon and regenerative agriculture. CropX is deployed in 60+ countries across a diverse range of crops and farm types.\n\nCropX has raised $86.1M in total funding, including a Series C in October 2023, and has grown to serve 20,000+ customers with a team of 134 employees. The company's international deployment footprint — spanning North America, Europe, Australia, and emerging agricultural markets — reflects the universal applicability of data-driven soil management. CropX sits at the intersection of precision agriculture, water conservation, and sustainable farming, three of the highest-priority investment themes in global food systems.

About

Mountain Dew is a high-caffeine citrus-flavored carbonated soft drink owned by PepsiCo (NASDAQ: PEP) — one of the most distinctive soft drink brands in the US, known for its electric green color, intense sweetness, and significantly higher caffeine content than other sodas (54mg per 12oz vs. Coca-Cola's 34mg). Mountain Dew targets young male consumers, gamers, and extreme sports enthusiasts with marketing positioning around energy, adventure, and gaming culture. Frito-Lay North America, the Frito-Lay business, and Mountain Dew together form PepsiCo's North America Beverages segment.\n\nMountain Dew's product line extends well beyond the original citrus flavor — the brand has proliferated with Code Red (cherry), Voltage (raspberry citrus), Baja Blast (tropical lime, exclusive to Taco Bell), White Out, Major Melon, and seasonal and limited releases that generate significant retail excitement and social media engagement. The gaming partnership strategy (Major League Gaming, game sponsorships, gamer content creators) has been central to Mountain Dew's marketing for over a decade, creating authentic presence in the gaming community. MTN DEW Rise Energy competes in the energy drink segment.\n\nIn 2025, Mountain Dew competes with Coca-Cola's brands (Mello Yello, Surge) and energy drinks (Monster, Red Bull) for the high-caffeine/energy-adjacent soft drink market. The carbonated soft drink market faces secular decline as consumers shift toward water, energy drinks, and better-for-you beverages — Mountain Dew's intensely loyal customer base (Dew Nation) provides resilience against this trend, as passionate brand advocates continue consumption despite broader category softness. PepsiCo's 2025 strategy for Mountain Dew focuses on flavored variety launches driving trial, gaming sponsorship maintaining cultural relevance, and growing MTN DEW Rise Energy in the expanding energy drink category.
