Women in Agri Supply Chains

LadyAgri Impact Investment Hub

Discover successful supply chain solutions, as we share concrete case studies, informed by impact data from LadyAgri Impact Investment’s work with fellow ecosystem builders across Africa and Small Island Developing States. We’ll show how LadyAgri and partners from the financial, public and private sector (development finance institutions, impact investors, commercial banks, microfinance institutions, agri-corporates) are making a change by investing technical assistance, developing appropriate agri-finance and market access solutions for women as the primary guarantors of #FoodSecurity and #CircularEconomy models. We’ll also explore how stakeholders are building economic and environmental resilience to climate change by targeting financial services and non-financial support to women in agri-value chains.

Steward Ownership

DOEN

Steward-ownership lets companies scale and stay mission-driven – now and in the future. It’s an innovative way to put impact first, and while it’s gaining attention among impact entrepreneurs and investors alike, it’s time to talk steward-ownership with the greater impact ecosystem. We'll share inspiration and knowledge, addressing questions like what it takes to be a good steward and how to make steward-owned businesses attractive to investors. Get a hands-on look at how steward-ownership works and why it matters, with diverse perspectives from our panel and plenty of space for debate.
