For the Accelerate for Impact Platform (A4IP), 2023 was encapsulated by a deepened commitment to harnessing the Alliance of Bioversity International & CIAT and CGIAR’s scientific expertise and resources to co-design, accelerate, and de-risk breakthrough agricultural solutions. Recognizing that the potential for disruptive impact lies within the organization’s legacy for research and innovation, and the ever-growing capacities of its research centers and partners worldwide, the platform worked to ensure that the Alliance and CGIAR was positioned at the forefront of the year’s global agri-tech activity.
The A4IP 2023 Year in Review relays a twelve-month journey through which pioneering initiatives, ground-breaking partnerships, and progressive milestones have been achieved in science-based innovation, bolstered by the steadfast dedication of the Alliance, CGIAR, partners, and innovators. In doing so, A4IP is operating as a leading player within the agri-tech space, serving our institutional vision for a sustainable tomorrow – sentiments echoed in the review’s foreword by Juan Lucas Restrepo, Director General of the Alliance, and CGIAR’s Global Director of Partnerships & Advocacy.
“As 2030 approaches, our strategies to transform our food, land, and water systems must emphasize the importance of integrated efforts across research centers, partners, and beneficiaries to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals. A4IP leverages the Alliance of Bioversity International & CIAT and CGIAR capabilities, knowledge, assets, people, and global presence to upscale partnership-driven research. In this context, engagement with the private sector is especially important given the opportunity to leverage its resources, capacities, and networks, as well as to deploy innovation at scale.”
