Our strategic pillar: Skills, training, and talent development
Skills, training, and talent development is one of EMILI's strategic pillars. We create opportunities for students from non-agriculture backgrounds to learn new skills while gaining hands-on experience and exposure to a wide variety of career opportunities in digital agriculture. (See our Explore Project for an example of this).
Our other pillars are intelligent technology integration; capital enablement; and innovation and research. Guided by these strategic pillars EMILI works with industry and academia to provide people with the connections, skills, training, and resources they need.
