The 2nd Planet Purpose Awards 2023 AgriChain has become a nominee in the worldwide award in the Dream Big category

The beginning of 2022 was not met by all Ukrainians as expected – on 24.02.22 the war began.

Russia canceled all plans, business agreements, put all projects on hold and, most importantly, took away, and continues to do so, the lives and homes of hundreds of thousands and millions of people. But the Ukrainian people fought back on all fronts, united – people, business, military, volunteers, partners.

Among the key associations in 2022 for the Agrichain company were:

– The partnership with Planet and setting up the integration between AC Scout and the global Planet Labs platform for obtaining satellite images of fields (Planet Visual, Planet NDVI) has become especially important in the context of hostilities in the country and the need for remote monitoring of the state of crops;

– Humanitarian project Common Help Ua, which was created by the charitable foundation “Believe in Yourself” on the basis of the enterprises of the Astarta-Kyiv holding. Our company developed and implemented IT solutions for the project (website, mobile applications, CRM system). Among the project partners are the following companies: WFP, Vodafone, Raiffeisen Bank, KFW, SkyUp, Glovo, Carlsberg, KSE, AgriChain, Astarta-Kyiv, Creatio and others.

We were invited by our partners, Planet Labs, to the annual Planet Explore Conference, which will be held in Washington in April, and were nominated for the “Dream Big” nomination. The “Dream Big” nomination is dedicated to companies that expand the boundaries of the possible, guided by a big, bold mission.

For us, this is a huge distinction and we are proud of it, because Planet gathers world leaders of all advanced industries and we are among them. But in the conditions of open aggression on the part of Russia, a decision was made to participate in the event online, as we understand that each of us must be in Ukraine, in our places, and do everything to bring the inevitable victory of the Ukrainian people closer.

Until then, together with the agro-industrial holding “Astarta-Kyiv”, we will continue to focus on the development and popularization of the digitalization culture of the entire industry and each individual agricultural enterprise.

Our path is meaningful, difficult and involves a change of consciousness, approaches in the work of each individual specialist, agronomist or agrarian business owner. But we are sure that this will be facilitated by new humanitarian projects, partnerships, international and grant projects, collaborations with global production and IT companies, such as Planet Labs.

We await the results of the competition at the end of April and invite everyone to join our ambitious “Dream Big”.
