Transforming Financial Inclusion for Farmers using SpaceTech Analytics
On agri-fintech usecases and mitigating risks
About the talk
The agri-fintech ecosystem represents the convergence of agricultural and financial technologies to address the unique challenges faced by farmers and stakeholders in the agricultural value chain. Using AI technologies, innovative solutions for crop insurance services, mobile payment systems, supply chain financing, and data-driven agricultural analytics are being developed, aimed at enhancing financial access and promoting sustainable practices in agriculture.
In this session, Raghu will share his experiences of building an agri-fintech solution, challenges faced in this ecosystem, and strategies for mitigating socio-technical risks.
Rumanu Bhardwaj and Rachna Maheshwari will moderate the session. Rumanu is a Machine Learning Researcher at ISB and Rachna works as a Practice Lead in Financial Risk Modelling with Crisil (S&P Global) in their global risk consulting practice and teaches Quantitative Finance as visiting faculty at institutions in Mumbai.
