🪱 Ready to take a look inside the Agrifood Lab Hackathon? We have prepared for you a video that accurately conveys the atmosphere of the event. For two days, teams at Kooperativ searched for solutions to the challenges of the Ukrainian agrifood sector. From demining fields to rethinking pea paste. 🙌 All this according to the methodology of design thinking under the careful mentorship of Oleksandr Akymenko. Each team went from defining the problem and interviewing experts to preparing a prototype and presenting it to the jury. Thank you to the participants, experts, and jury for the proactive approach and sense of synergy throughout the hackathon. Agrifood Lab is an innovation studio from INSCIENCE, CIVITTA, cyber/nnov8, Radar Tech. The project took place within the framework of the Challenge Labs program in Ukraine by EIT Food, which is supported by the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT), a body of the European Union. Project partners are EFSE, SmartFarming and Kooperativ.

Regarding J. Clay McGuyer's allusion to "the Warehouse of Death" for #defenseinnovation ...I think this is a contender to replace the infamous Valley of Death. The latter suggests that if we (small tech companies) only had enough water and supplies, we could make it across. In other words, the Valley analogy implies that small tech companies have some (some) ability to control their own destiny. But if you end up in the Warehouse, on the other hand, water and supplies may just extend your shelf life in purgatory. This opinion piece by Jason Stack was in my reading pile -- https://lnkd.in/dAcrZiHN -- and in my opinion provides very valuable insights into achieving the level and quality of innovation the US needs to prevail in any future near-peer (or even non-near peer) conflict. He expands on these four points: 1.     Solve problems, don’t meet requirements.  2.     Protect, incentivize and embed the innovators.  3.     Experiment early, incrementally and only against actual hypotheses.  4.     Optimize for discovery and speed, not for efficiency or scale. I thought Jason's opinion piece provided valuable insights and applications for achieving the type of truly disruptive (a la Replicator) innovation we all claim to value. Sure, handy for the DoD to have a warehouse of shelves to pull tech from when they decide they need it. But to Jason's point, the warehouse approach may not serve the endgame of unleashing the type of disruptive innovation process we need to win the war.

Re "100 years of women, actuarial women", how do you reconcile the IFoA saying on its website "We're proud to support, retain and develop female actuaries" (https://lnkd.in/euc5h_UK) with the Institute and Faculty of Actuaries making two highly regarded female actuaries redundant at short notice, one of whom was 8 months pregnant, to replace them by non actuaries, and to the surprise and shock of many senior actuaries? #hypocrisy #doublestandards #ifoa #actuaries
