The Global AgriFood TechPreneur programme is a food system sustainability business development programme designed to support young graduates that are passionate about addressing food system sustainability challenges in their country.
After a successful first run of the Global AgriFood Techpreneur Programme in 2022, the hunt is on for the next set of passionate young graduates that are eager to lead the transformation of the food system in their country.
IntelliDigest is pleased to be working with the United Nations Food System Summit Alliance on building resilient local food supply chains with focus on local production of diverse and nutritious foods for local demand and need. In the face of the recent health and food and supply chains crises; there is an urgency in the face of multiple risks to ensure we evolve a more resilient and sustainable food system. The Global AgriFood TechPreneur programme will be a great facilitator to developing the required human and digital capacity across the globe to make it feasible.
We are proud to be supported by Royal Bank of Scotland, UK-Science Technology Facility Council (STFC) Food Network and world class business schools across the globe in delivering an exceptional 6 week interactive masterclass on entrepreneurship, tech and food system sustainability to young graduates to improve food production and distribution while putting an end to hunger, obesity, malnutrition soil degradation,and food waste.
