JOIN US IN MAKING SOL BRINGING THE A DIFFERENCE FOR THE WORLD Within the agricultural and food sector, digital transformation is under way and poised to continue. Circular supply chain is a solution in the concept phase, to advance to a proof of concept and demonstration next. A patent is pending. There’s a lot of excitement around blockchain in the agricultural UTION T sector and particularly in the supply chain for its ability to provide transparency and certainty of information. But it will take a global village to turn this solution into a reality. To accelerate our journey and action plan, we’re looking to form a consortium with interested partners who are willing to collaborate with us to help empower potential solutions. For large enterprises, a solution like circular supply chain addresses a company’s sustainability goals. One way is by helping to drive social impact and improve the livelihoods of producers. The solution offers incentives throughout the O LIFE entire ecosystem for players to follow the right protocols. For those enterprises interested in participating in our consortium, participation provides a means to drive innovation and amplify emerging technology investment by furthering corporate priorities. It offers the potential to create new channels of customer engagement, help build brand loyalty, and enhance reputation and brand through green credentials. Many of today’s environmental practices are unsustainable. If left unchanged, mankind will pay a heavy price for inaction. Conversely, mankind has much to gain if circular supply chain can change destructive methods to more responsible and sustainable practices. Such a change holds the potential to change the way our food, clothing and other retail goods are produced, and enhance the incomes of producers—benefiting the environment and society. The key thing here is to change the dynamics at the beginning of the supply chain. CONTENTS 12
