Program description

This Program supports the Capacity Building pillar of IOFS strategy in strengthening technical and innovative solutions development capacity of MCs.

Current & Potential Activities: (These activities are not final and definitive and would be su bject to management review and changes)

  • Food & Agritech COE: Become the OIC foodtech and agritech center of excellence (topic examples: biotech crops, agri farming robotics, water resource management and other software and AI decision making solutions). Present thought leadership and facilitate training programs and workshops.
  • Food and Agritech Service Provider Network: Build linkages with and identify and qualify quality OIC based food and agri tech service providers to help develop and grow them as well as support as implementation resource for MCs.

10 Year strategic Goals

  • IOFS becomes Food & Agri Tech COE for MCs with implementation partner resources.
Strategic Partners:
