SAI Platform launches Advisor Network to support on the ground action
19th August 2024
SAI Platform is pleased to announce the launch of the SAI Platform Advisor Network, an important development to provide our community with the support it needs to implement sustainable agriculture practices in supply chains.
This directory is designed to connect SAI Platform members and system users with a global pool of consultants who have extensive knowledge and experience in sustainability, to support their efforts, on the ground.
The SAI Platform Advisor Network, now available in My SAI Platform, is a comprehensive resource for both members and system users. It facilitates connection with consultants who demonstrate expertise in sustainability topics and have met SAI Platform’s criteria for listing on the Network. For the Farm Sustainability Assessment (FSA), for instance, advisors have undergone FSA training, through the SAI Platform Academy. This ensures that listed consultants are well-versed in the latest from our industry solutions and best practices.
Key Features and Benefits
The Advisor Network offers numerous benefits to SAI Platform members and consultants.
For SAI Platform members, the Advisor Network is a helpful resource for identifying and engaging with consultants who can support their sustainability goals. The network is searchable by regions and competencies, allowing members to find the right expertise for their specific needs. This resource aims to enhance the ability of SAI Platform members to implement sustainable practices effectively and efficiently.
For consultants, being listed in the network provides an opportunity to showcase their experience and training. Each consultant’s profile includes detailed descriptions of their consultancy and expertise, along with clickable links to their websites and LinkedIn pages, making it simple for members to engage with them directly.
“Joining the SAI Platform Advisor Network is a great opportunity to collaborate with forward-thinking companies, driving sustainable agriculture. By leveraging our expertise, we foster innovation and implement tailored sustainability solutions, creating a more efficient future for our agricultural supply chains.”
SAI Platform Advisor Network Member, Tomas Mata, Director of GreenGap
