We are launching a new theme for 2021: social impact-focussed tech businesses. In this our first episode of the series, we are highlighting Farm Credibly, a digital co-operative for farms in Jamaica. We speak with its Co-Founder and CEO, Varun Baker to find out, among other things: What does it mean to be a digital co-op for farms? How Farm Credibly manages the risks typically associated with lending to the farmers? What are some of the key performance indicators (KPIs) or markers of success that are important to Farm Credibly? How easy might it be to expand Farm Credibly to other countries?   Show notes and links to some of the things mentioned during the episode can be found at www.ict-pulse.com/category/podcast/ Do subscribe and leave us a review!
