Welcome to RootsToFoods, the podcast exploring food systems, entrepreneurship, technology, and climate adaptation. I'm your host, Ovidiu Bujorean, Sr. Technical Director at AV Ventures, the impact investing arm of ACDI VOCA.
Today, I am happy to host a special episode focused on "Building Prosperity through Entrepreneurship and Partnerships." This conversation brings together three dynamic voices who are deeply engaged in advancing global food security, agricultural innovation, and economic inclusion: Sarah Farley, Vice President at the Rockefeller Foundation and CD Glin, President of the PepsiCo Foundation &Global Head of Social Impact at PepsiCo.
Together, we’ll explore how entrepreneurship, partnerships, and innovative finance can transform food systems, empower communities, and build resilience in the face of pressing challenges like youth unemployment, economic inequality, and climate change. We’ll dive into actionable strategies that public, private, and philanthropic leaders are implementing to create inclusive, sustainable growth and new opportunities for small businesses and entrepreneurs across Africa and beyond.
