Highlights today include a report from the annual Forbes AgTech Summit in Salinas, a report from the DART Drone & Robotics Symposium in Monterey, and a Q&A with the founding CEO of an early stage life science (biotech) startup that's just coming out of stealth mode. We also share some Netflix history with a local twist and provide a "heads up" on a related book that's coming out in September.
