This week has been a pivotal one for Africa as Rwanda hosted the 2024 Africa Food System Forum (AFSF) under the theme: “Innovate, Accelerate, and Scale,” emphasizing the vital role of Africa's youth and women in driving economic progress. Ignitia was honored to participate in two key side events during the summit. Our very own Kwabena Amoateng Frimpong and Ian Mati represented us, showcasing Ignitia’s commitment to transforming food systems through innovation and climate-smart solutions. In the first event, “Climate Smart Agriculture (CSA): Scaling Pathways,” we presented strategies to bridge the gaps between providers and users in the adoption of CSA solutions, focusing on policy, financial, and technical aspects. The second event, “Herding Change for Climate-Smart Innovations,” highlighted how Ignitia’s technology addresses climate challenges within the livestock sector, driving resilience and sustainability. The forum sessions focused heavily on climate action and sustainable agriculture, urging for partnerships and investments in climate adaptation strategies to empower smallholder farmers and secure long-term productivity across the continent. At Ignitia, we are more committed than ever to contributing innovative solutions for carbon farming, regenerative agriculture, and climate-smart technologies to safeguard Africa’s food security. #AfricaFoodSystemForum #Ignitia #ClimateSmartAgriculture #Innovation #Sustainability #FoodSecurity #ClimateAction #RegenerativeAgriculture #Kwabena #Ian #AgricultureTransformation #YouthEmpowerment #WomenInAgriculture
Om oss
ignitia is a deep-tech company producing the world's first highly accurate tropical forecast model. Our team of scientists and engineers are experts in their fields, and have created a model that operates at 84% accuracy, compared to the 39% accuracy of global models. ignitia is a weather producer- not a weather service. Our unique approach is rooted in the use of remote sensing data sets (like satellites), without requiring ground monitoring systems. Predictive artificial intelligence, proprietary algorithms, and uninterrupted 3-D multisource data come together to create a tropical forecast that is twice as accurate as global models.

From years to days, AI is transforming how we predict the weather with unmatched speed and precision. I posted previously that the most exciting advancements in AI are its ability to speed up product development and time to market drastically. In that example, Tesla's Full Self-Driving updates were used. https://lnkd.in/eFnV_PWY ⛈ This leap is particularly transformative in fields like weather prediction, where understanding our planet's dynamics is crucial. Take ignitia, a pioneer in tropical weather forecasting. Historically, developing accurate weather models for tropical regions, such as West Africa, was a time-consuming process. Back in 2015, building a model for a single country could take up to 5 years. The challenge was that traditional meteorological models, designed for mid-latitude climates, struggled with the unique convective processes driving tropical rains, leading to significant forecast errors. 🏃♀️ Enter AI. Since integrating AI into its operations in 2017, Ignitia has reduced the model development time from 5 years to just 2 years and expanded its reach to larger areas, including Brazil. By 2023, it achieved a breakthrough: developing a comprehensive weather model for the entire continent of Africa in just 3 months, with an impressive average rainfall accuracy of 88%. I think we will be at days very soon! In Nature and Climate Tech, time to market is one of the greatest hurdles and costs. Overcoming the challenge of lengthy time-to-market can be a game-changer not only for startups but customers too. ignitia's achievements in accelerating weather model development highlight the immense potential AI holds in transforming industries by enabling faster, more accurate solutions. This is why I believe the application of AI to understand Nature and the field of NatureTech could be one of the greatest unlocks in adaption and, importantly, productivity. I want to hear other exciting developments like this; please let me know! #AI #WeatherPrediction #Naturetech #Agtech #TimeToMarket #Risk #climaterisks Image: The importance of time to market - In NatureTech & AgTech the blue curve can be very long.

Com o passar dos anos, o clima foi mudando e causando impactos, tanto positivos quanto negativos, na produção de alimentos. Sendo a agricultura uma atividade dependente de fatores climáticos, é importante compreendê-los e assim tirar melhor proveito dessas alterações. Mais do que fazer o correto plantio ou manejo das culturas, conhecer mais sobre a área em que está sua produção e, principalmente, como o clima - em constante mudança - a afeta, é fundamental. É importante compreender essas mudanças e perceber que elas não necessariamente trazem apenas inconvenientes. Se usadas com inteligência estratégica, elas podem trazer benefícios e até mesmo a criação de novos negócios. A ignitia é especialista em previsões meteorológicas tropicais hiperlocalizadas e tem auxiliado agricultores em todo o mundo a melhorar sua produção.
