Ángel Leo Revilla is co-founder and operations manager of Isifarmer, a triple impact company that combines urban agriculture, technology, and training to create economic opportunities from the city.

Isifarmer proposes an alternative model based on indoor urban farms, installed in municipal markets and other urban spaces. These infrastructures allow for the production of certain crops in controlled environments, reducing the distance between production and consumption and creating new opportunities for local entrepreneurship.

The goal is not to replace conventional agriculture but to complement it with proximity production models for certain crops, especially those that are more delicate or have high added value. “We want to bring production closer to the city, shorten the supply chain, and connect producers directly with consumers,” explains Revilla.

With projects already underway in Madrid and plans for expansion to other cities like Seville, Málaga, or Barcelona, Isifarmer aims to demonstrate that technology, training, and organizational innovation can serve a more inclusive and resilient food system.
