​Science-Backed Innovations from India Curated for Adaptation and Scale in East Africa
​Microbial Science for Soil Health and Animal Nutrition
This venture brings cutting-edge biotechnology to agriculture, harnessing advanced microbial technologies and seaweed-derived biostimulants to build climate-resilient and regenerative farming systems. Their science-driven solutions restore soil health, boost crop nutrition, and reduce reliance on chemical pesticides—delivering higher yields with lower residues from seed to harvest.
​
Beyond crops, their probiotics and feed additives strengthen immunity and productivity in poultry and livestock, addressing critical gaps in Africa’s food security value chain. With a robust R&D base, proprietary microbial libraries, and proven field results, their innovations offer scalable, sustainable alternatives that can transform East Africa’s agriculture into a more productive, resilient, and future-ready system.
Climate Resilient Seeds for Africa’s Food Security
This venture is a crop genetics and hybrid seed innovator with deep expertise in developing, producing, and distributing high-performing seeds across cereals, oilseeds, vegetables, and fodder crops. Backed by a vast germplasm repository and advanced breeding programs, they deliver resilient, high-yielding hybrids that serve over 600,000 farmers annually.
​
Their science-driven approach - spanning proprietary genetics, multi-location testing, and rigorous R&D - ensures seeds are adapted to diverse agro-climatic conditions. For East Africa, this innovation holds the potential to accelerate food security by introducing hybrids tailored to local soils, climates, and farmer practices, while also enabling local seed production partnerships. With proven impact across South Asia, their hybrid solutions can help African farmers achieve greater productivity, resilience, and prosperity.
Cooling as a Service for Sustainable Growth
This venture delivers advanced, energy-efficient cooling and heating systems tailored for buildings in fast-growing economies. Their innovations spanning radiant cooling, geothermal systems, solar cooling, and heat pumps—dramatically reduce energy use while enhancing comfort and sustainability.
​
Through a unique “Cooling as a Service” model, they finance, install, and operate large-scale systems for hotels, hospitals, malls, and office buildings, allowing clients to pay only for usage. For Africa’s rapidly urbanizing markets, these solutions can lower energy costs, cut emissions, and build climate-smart infrastructure—helping cities grow sustainably while improving quality of life.
Strengthening the Export Value Chain for Agriculture
This venture strengthens entire agri-value chains by combining finance, market insights, and supply chain expertise. Their model goes beyond credit—helping farmers and agri-enterprises understand agro-climatic zones, optimize crop choices, and achieve higher productivity aligned with global market demand.
​
By embedding international quality standards and improving traceability, they enable African producers to reduce dependence on imports while expanding exports of high-value crops. The result is a pathway to self-reliance and global competitiveness—where Africa not only feeds itself but also becomes a trusted supplier to the world.
