Food Security
Availability
FoodBuddy directly addresses the physical availability of food from the “supply side” of food security - which is determined by the level of food production, stock levels and net trade.
Our unique AI driven technology has the ability to connect scarce resources (food) with those who need it most - in real-time.
Securely, discretely + instantly.
Access
An adequate supply of food does not guarantee household level food security.
Concerns about insufficient food access (both nationally and globally) means we must focus on incomes, expenditure, markets and prices in achieving food security.
FoodBuddy simultaneously matches supply with demand and can also augment this with third party programs such as government, philanthropic and charitable organisations.
Stability
Even if food intake is adequate today, many people have inadequate access to food on a periodic basis, risking a deterioration of their nutritional status.
Our technology aims to solve this through ingenious incentives for all participants together with Deep Learning technology models that classify and predict requirements based on the needs of our participants.
Our mission
We're on a mission to change the way food security works.
From having reliable access to a sufficient quantity of affordable, nutritious food, to utilization and stability: security means health.
Our vision
We want to live in a world where people at all times can have physical and economic access to sufficient safe and nutritious food that meets their dietary needs and food prferences for an active and healthy life.
Our team
Lead by Dr Connie Chang our team fosters the best talent internally to bring secure food to all our participants.
