Next stop Davos! | Feroz Sheikh

Transcript

I'm excited to launch my CIO Diet. It will be a monthly format, sometimes in video, sometimes in text and sometimes in writing to bring the latest innovations in cutting edge technology and artificial intelligence. My first edition is going to be from the World Economic Forum at Davos. I'm in the trains. It's a beautiful sunny day. Headed to Davos and looking forward to the interactions. Daraus Platz. N��chster Travels. This strong continued. So next stop, that was where we will be engaging in interactions with other business leaders, technology companies, as well as governments and policymakers on the role of AI in agriculture and for society at large. And I'll be happy to bring you some of those thoughts, reflections, and insights. See you until the next edition.

Today, what we know as a JOB has already changed. It's Inevitable that every industry (including Finance) WILL be affected by the Quiet Revolution of Robotics & Ai. Here's the 2 responses that most will have: 1. Respond with gaining Skills that Complement your field/industry within the realms of tech. I know... some departments and role may no longer be in existence do to this fast paces innovation. But, I still believe there's unique ways to add value either in your industry or jumping into another industry of interest. 2. Don't Respond & Get left behind. This is harsh but its true. All the protesting will not stop the innovation within the markets and the Capital that corporations will be saving due to robotics/Ai implementation. Either response will come with it's own difficulties and challenges that Im sure we all will overcome overtime. **I also believe its time our elected officials have some serious conversations about Laws to protect the working class as innovation rapidly increases. No one should be left behind.

🌾 Agricultural Technology: The Quiet Revolution Changing Everything! We often think about AI in terms of self-driving cars, healthcare, or finance, but Agricultural Tech is where innovation is quietly taking root—and it’s a game changer. 🚜🌱 Imagine precision farming powered by AI that helps farmers use fewer resources while boosting crop yields. Drones monitoring fields, predictive analytics ensuring healthy growth, and automated systems streamlining tasks—this is the future of food production, unfolding today! 🌍 The implications? More food with fewer resources, enhanced sustainability, and even combating climate change. What’s the most exciting ag-tech trend you’ve seen lately? 🌟 Let’s discuss in the comments! 🔗 Follow Randy Aneke for more cutting-edge insights into AI and the digital revolution. Don’t forget to tag a friend who would love to explore this topic! ♻️ Repost if you find this informative.

The SVG Ventures | THRIVE Global Impact Summit shed light on crucial insights: - Food production and protection stand out as profoundly impactful industries affecting us all, with a significant footprint on our planet. - Despite innovative strides like sea-derived milk-like powder, cocoa cultivation in cell lines, and crop health sensors, these advancements fall short of addressing fundamental requirements. A staggering 40% of production is lost to pests. - While AI holds promise, its transformative impact in this realm is yet to be fully realized. Reflecting on these takeaways emphasizes the pressing need for sustainable solutions and advancements in agriculture to tackle challenges and maximize productivity effectively. #THRIVEGlobal #Agriculture #Innovation Projini | Generative Chemistry deploys Generative AI that fundamentally changes the sucess rate and economy of crop protection innovation. So we can feed our growing population and secure our future.

Our commitment to harnessing artificial intelligence (AI) and innovation for sustainable agriculture is a key part of our strategy at Syngenta Group . Seeing this vision echoed on a global stage at the World Economic Forum in Davos was truly energizing. The excitement surrounding conversations about AI and innovation was not just inspiring, it was a validation of the path we've been following at Syngenta Group . So in the first episode of my monthly "CIO Diary" series, I invite you to join me for an insider's view of my experiences at Davos. I hope it'll give you a glimpse of the energizing atmosphere that filled the forum. The discussions I had there reinforced my belief that we are at a new era in agriculture. AI is not just a tool for efficiency, it's a catalyst for sustainable practices that can help us feed a growing world while preserving our planet. And I’m #SyngentaProud that at Syngenta Group , we're not just observers, but active participants of this revolution. Your thoughts on AI (in agriculture or within the business context) are valuable to me. Let's keep this important conversation going – for example, starting in the comments below. I'm also eager to hear which topics you'd like me to explore in future CIO Diary episodes, so open to suggestions. #WEF25 #SyngentaATWEF25 #Agtech Jeff Rowe Thomas Jung Alexandra Brand

Merry Christmas ! 𝑺𝒐, 𝒘𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒊𝒔 𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒕 𝒐𝒏𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒘𝒉𝒊𝒄𝒉 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒂𝒓𝒆 𝒍𝒐𝒐𝒌𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒇𝒐𝒓 𝒊𝒏 2025? While there were so many things which was kind of unexpected in 2024, the rise of AI is something which turned out to be the turning stone for all of us. 2024 showed the true potential of AI and how it is going to change the way we all work (It has definitely changed the way I work!) and I am sure, 2025 is going to surprise more ! BUT what I am actually looking forward is innovation in agriculture and food sector ! Why? Because while we can imagine a life without AI, we simply cannot live without food! The agriculture sector holds enormous opportunities, and those who are driving innovation here aren’t just solving problems – they’re reshaping the world. From sustainable farming to food security, this is where real, impactful change is happening. Let’s build a future where no one goes hungry, and we live in harmony with the planet! Have a fantastic year ahead, and Merry Christmas once again! #innovation #MerryChristmas #FutureReady #AI2025 PS: 𝐻𝑒𝑟𝑒’𝑠 𝑎 𝑙𝑖𝑡𝑡𝑙𝑒 𝑐𝑙𝑖𝑝 𝐼 𝑐𝑎𝑚𝑒 𝑎𝑐𝑟𝑜𝑠𝑠 (𝑣𝑖𝑎 𝑎 𝑊ℎ𝑎𝑡𝑠𝐴𝑝𝑝 𝑓𝑜𝑟𝑤𝑎𝑟𝑑!) 𝑡ℎ𝑎𝑡 𝑏𝑟𝑖𝑙𝑙𝑖𝑎𝑛𝑡𝑙𝑦 𝑐𝑎𝑝𝑡𝑢𝑟𝑒𝑠 𝑤ℎ𝑎𝑡 𝐴𝐼 𝑐𝑎𝑛 𝑑𝑜 𝑡𝑜𝑑𝑎𝑦 – 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑤ℎ𝑎𝑡 𝑤𝑒 𝑚𝑖𝑔ℎ𝑡 𝑒𝑥𝑝𝑒𝑐𝑡 𝑖𝑛 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑛𝑒𝑎𝑟 𝑓𝑢𝑡𝑢𝑟𝑒.
