353. BONUS: Corteva’s Brook Cunningham and Kearney’s Rob Dongoski from World AgriTech in San Francisco
Stage content at events like World AgriTech is always of highest quality but there are conversations happening behind the scenes that give a sense of what’s happening in the industry. Brook Cunningham, Senior Vice President and Chief Strategy Officer at Corteva Agriscience, and Rob Dongoski, Food and Agribusiness Leader at Kearney, joined us for a conversation at World AgriTech to get perspective on many topics, including:
- A volatile market – and the reminder that it’s also cyclical
- The tipping point for investors and the critical questions they have beyond just yield at this point in time
- Corteva’s balanced approach between internal and external innovation and the company’s areas of focus when it comes to investment and partnership
- How Kearney is advising companies seeking investment – of all sizes – in this volatile time (hint: don’t go it alone)
- Areas of innovation that are seeing traction from investors
- The importance of creating certainty around the noise – from regulatory to policy and beyond
- How they both see this market cycle differently than past cycles
- The role of food and consumers in this next evolution of food and agriculture
- Crystal ball: what are the conversations at World AgriTech like five years from now?
