Cheese KIT
The Cheese Making Kit covered everything needed to produce a variety of artisan cheeses at home: halloumi, paneer, cottage cheese, and fresh curd, all from scratch.
Beer KIT
The Beer Making Kit offered three distinct styles to brew at home: a German Hefeweizen, an American Pale Ale, and a Dark Chocolate Oatmeal Stout, accessible enough for complete beginners.
Seed KIT
The Seed Kits brought fresh herbs and vegetables indoors: basil, coriander, mint, sage, tomato, and pumpkin, suited for year-round planting and those taking their first steps in indoor gardening.
The Project
Farm in the City was an innovative concept for a grow-your-own and make-your-own food and drink brand, targeting urban farmers and home producers. The vision was to build a sustainable, community-driven business — starting online and scaling through physical retail.
Farm in the City came to MDN Labs with an idea. We developed the brand identity, defined the product range, and designed the retail concept ready for launch. The business did not progress to market, but the work stands as a complete concept-to-launch-ready delivery.
Concept Store
The concept store we designed for Farm in the City brought together a curated range of kits — cheese-making, home brewing, seed growing, and mushroom cultivation — built around the idea that urban food production should be accessible, enjoyable, and sustainable.

The Project
KYTION envisioned a future where solar-powered, autonomous robots equipped with AI engines navigate greenhouses and arable plots around the clock with minimal human supervision. Its mission was to empower growers by unlocking the advantages of precision agriculture through innovative devices for greenhouses and challenging terrains.
We joined the KYTION project following their first award recognition, guiding the team through business planning, competition strategy, and product development. The result was a string of national and international awards, and a prototype shipped to a leafy greens producer in Montana, USA.
The Gisemi award, was the first recognition of KYTION innovation and dedication to the field of robotics. This award gave the team the green light to push their development even further, and it marked the embarkment of MDN Labs onto the project.
2019
The Orange Grove pitching award supported by the prestigious Wagenigen University competition was an important milestone for KYTION. The award motivated the enlarged team to continue pushing the boundaries of what is possible.
2020
In 2021 the team was thrilled to announce that the KYTION 'cablebot', won 2nd place at the national NBG Business Seeds competition, with the guidance of MDN Labs. This tremendous achievement was a testament to the team's hard work and dedication.
2021
In the summer of 2022, the first KYTION pilot product was shipped to a leafy greens producer in Montana, USA. This marked the culmination of MDN Labs' involvement in the project and stands as testament to the team's hard work and dedication.

KYTION
The KYTION was a revolutionary IoT-powered smart device designed to roam greenhouses and control all environmental aspects — temperature, humidity, and soil moisture. Suspended by cables overhead the cultivation, the autonomous cablebot allowed growers to receive real-time alerts and take action to avoid crop loss.
The Project
ABZ Innovation is a Hungarian drone technology company developing solutions for agricultural and industrial operators. DJI is the world's leading manufacturer of commercial drones. MDN Labs worked alongside both to introduce professional drone technology to the Greek market, covering precision agriculture, aerial data capture, and custom applications for field operators.
We supported market entry and business development for drone technology in Greece through a local affiliate — working with local operators, growers, and institutions to build awareness and demand. Alongside this, we contributed to technical scoping and feasibility work on custom drone applications tailored to local field conditions.
Market Development
We supported market entry and business development for drone technology in Greece — working with local operators, growers, and institutions to build awareness and create demand for professional aerial solutions.
Technical Scoping
We contributed to feasibility assessment and specification work for custom drone applications — translating specific field requirements and operational constraints into viable, actionable technical briefs.
Field Applications
We supported the deployment of drone solutions for precision agriculture — from crop monitoring and aerial survey to site-specific operational planning and field requirements.
Commercialisation
What started as an introduction of new technology to a nascent market grew into real operational deployments — with Greek farmers and operators among the first in the region to adopt professional drone solutions for precision agriculture and field management.
