FAI Farms joins corporate accelerator Project X as Shareholder and Advisory Board member
FAI Farms, the global food system consultancy, data and education business, is delighted to announce that we are joining the corporate accelerator Project X, as a shareholder and Advisory Board member.
Project X and FAI Farms are mission-aligned companies. Both are working to improve and transform global value chains to help combat biodiversity loss, climate change and food insecurity. Working together will help strengthen our impact.
The companies first collaborated in early 2019, when FAI was a research partner on Project X’s pilot FEED-X, responsible for animal welfare and social wellbeing research across salmon and shrimp supply chains. See details of Feed-X : Our Pilots – Project X Global
FAI’s multi-disciplinary team, industry network, and data expertise makes them a highly valued partner bringing a unique perspective into Project X’s network of experts and shareholders. The Project X team thanks FAI Farms for their trust and looks forward to working together on shifting $1.3tn of procurement to sustainability by 2030!
Marcela Navarro Founder and CEO of PX said “We really look forward to our deepening partnership with FAI Farms and the strength this brings to meeting the climate emergency challenge.”
