Our take

In 2022 alone there was a record 18 disasters related to climate in the US. Expand that snapshot globally and the issue is only more pronounced, and is getting worse as the years progress. Losses run into the multi-billions, and those are just the ones we can put a price on. So Gro Intelligence is, unfortunately, establishing itself at a good time for business. The company leverages AI and big data analysis to help organisations and individuals take informed action to tackle and navigate climate change and food security.

These issues have a profound logistical and economic impact on business of all stripes. So the addressable market is huge, and Gro Intelligence has netted a substantial portion of it: it counts top-tier companies like Unilever, Wells Fargo, and BNP Paribas as clients.

Gro Intelligence’s particular focus on food security will push its work further into the spotlight, too: food inflation is on the rise as major exporters limit exports or raise taxes, and this will only be exacerbated by the situation in Ukraine. Gro Intelligence’s ability to make rapid and incisive analytical developments to its platform will help it remain a crucial tool going forwards.
