Callaghan Innovation is delighted to invite you to join a six-part, online innovation workshop series on Global Signals.

‘Global Signals’ inform the future of food, agriculture and technology developments. They can come in the form of an event, product, practice, business model, or technology and are specific, small, or localised innovations that have the potential to grow. Signals do not predict the future but they can help your company prepare for multiple futures.

Facilitated by Dr Stephanie Pride from StratEDGY attendees will:

be introduced to a set of tools for 'futures' thinking
cover processes from scanning to reimagining strategy
learn skills and techniques that will increase their organisation's future awareness and future preparedness
learn the most effective ways to use them, and
how to avoid some common mistakes for people new to foresight

In conjunction with these workshops, Callaghan Innovation has also launched a new monthly newsletter, Global Signals, where we share signals relevant to the AgriFoodTech sector (learn more and subscribe here).

These workshops will be facilitated by our delivery partner StratEDGY, and are part of Callaghan Innovation’s deliverables for the Agritech Industry Transformation Plan (ITP). You can read more about the Agritech ITP here.
