Introducing FSD Spearhead to a Wider Audience: SBE Podcast Interview with FSD Researcher
Our lives and living conditions come at a cost. The amount that we pay for a cup of coffee at our favourite coffee store can have a life-changing impact on the farmer that produces the beans halfway across the globe.
In the latest episode of the SBE podcast, FSD researcher Sidi Amar shares his interesting professional journey and how the SBE Spearhead, Fair and Smart Data (FSD), aims to improve the lives of farmers in the Global South through the use of Data. Together with the host, Louis M. Morgner, they touch upon many interesting topics like Blockchain, innovation for the sake of society, data as the fuel for a growing economy, and more.
