ICT AND DATA SCIENCE

The last decades have seen rapid advancements in information, data, and communications technology, revolutionizing industries and global connectivity. Nearly every sector of our current society relies on the use of these technologies to function. Access to technology is perhaps the largest  single factor in the growth and industrial expansion of any geo-graphical location on the planet and has a direct impact on infrastructure and the provision of human and environmental health. 

At The Farm, we are focused on the integration of best-in-class technologies and data systems, that form the skeletal structure and connectivity servicing all our programmes and projects. And to support new and emerging IoT, data and comms technologies that help advance our goals through responsible, sustainable and efficient systems.

PUBLIC GROUP

Using Data to Help Governments, Leaders and Organisations Measure Public Opinion

As an early investor and collaborator, we are proud to partner with Public Group and its subsidiary Public Democracy (PD) to provide services to governments and large member-driven organisations and advocacy groups who want to interact with and garner support from the populations they serve.

Interpreting Data for Social Change and Advancement

Swerve is investing in partnerships with new and existing data impact leaders, enabling it, for example, to target the burgeoning and often obscure ESG market to pursue its strategic goals.  

The Imperative: both the general public and corporate boards increasingly recognise that Environmental, Social and Government (ESG) measurements are vital to investment success. By including stakeholders in corporate success metrics ESG initiatives can unlock unrealised market value, build brand, and mitigate risks. 

The Challenge: a lack of “bottom up” community data leaves companies unable to access whether their ESG initiatives actually align with stakeholder values or positively impact communities. 

Bottom-Up Impact

The challenges we solve: 

● We help companies make data-driven ESG decisions by understanding stakeholder priorities that matter for the business & communities. 

● We fill gaps in community data to align on ESG to stakeholder priorities and measure the true impact of ESG Investments. 

● We disrupt established top-down ESG data markets, which miss data on key stakeholders. 

● We democratise the market for ESG data - making it Inclusive with data on all stakeholders, including communities. 

● We engineer processes that create greater transparency and accountability.

● Our novel data co-ops & trust, creates incentives for community stakeholders to share in the value of ESG data and outcomes.
