I love field visits! 📸 Nothing excites me more than when our funders visit Synnefa and spend a couple of days visiting our smart greenhouses, understanding what we are building and learning what more we can do to truly improve incomes for farmers with climate resilient cash crops. But there is something different with our funders from Mulago. They are not just about writing checks; they are about rolling up there sleeves and digging into impact with us. We spent 2 days with the Mulago team lead by Kevin Starr and Sanat Daga looking at strategy, unit economics, impact and how do we truly get to scale and how does scale look like. We even broke out the flip charts, pens, and Post-its to scribble, brainstorm, and rethink strategy together. We might have used too much paper I guess 😁 but its the process of thinking through strategy and writing it down that shows you have actually internalised it. It’s rare to find partners who are as invested in the mission as they are in the numbers. Safe to say, they left as excited as we are! 🌱 #impact #socialentrepreneurship #mulagofoundation #ImpactInvesting #FarmShield #innovation #agriculture
