Abstract:
In his exit seminar, Dr. Schmidley takes a retrospective look at his cross-sector journey with business models and value chains, including his seven years in rice postharvest work at IRRI. He will explore the development of business models and their piloting in a value-chain context using rice-sector examples from South and Southeast Asia. In doing so, he will provide an overview on recent work on business models for adoption and delivery of postharvest technologies, particularly under the Phase II initiatives of the Cereal Systems Initiative for South Asia in India and Bangladesh. He will also enumerate key lessons learned that will aid in better understanding the ongoing complexities and challenges in sustainably delivering technologies as part of IRRI’s public sector value-driven mission.
