AI × Smallholder Farmers × Data Mixer

Join us on 4th December for an intimate, high-impact mixer bringing together leaders in agriculture, technology, research, finance, and development. The evening features a panel discussion on the future of AI and data in smallholder farming which will be followed by The soft launch of the Agricultural Information Infrastructure (AII), a farmer-centric data and AI platform built for Kenya.

ABOUT THIS EVENT

Smallholder farmers form the backbone of Kenya’s food system, yet they remain underserved by data and digital tools. While innovation in agriculture is growing, the sector still struggles with fragmented information, low digital adoption, and a lack of farmer-centric solutions.
This curated mixer brings together ecosystem leaders to have an honest conversation about what it will take to unlock real value for farmers using data and AI.
The highlight of the evening is a panel discussion titled:
“Unlocking Farmer-Centric Value: How Data & AI Can Transform Smallholder Agriculture in Kenya.”

The panel will explore:

• The biggest data gaps limiting productivity
• Representation of Smallholders in realm of data and if this important.
• How NGOs,researchers, agritechs, and financial institutions can collaborate
• The future of digital agriculture in East Africa.

The panel will lead directly into the soft launch of the Agricultural Information Infrastructure (AII) — a new platform designed to make agricultural data meaningful, ethical, and actionable for farmers and the organisations that serve them.

During the launch, we will share:

• Insights from our proof-of-concept with 50 farmers
• The health and yield estimator
• A walkthrough and demo of the AII platform
• Partnership opportunities for NGOs, agritechs, financiers, and researchers
