Case Study with BAYER
Bayer partnered with Babele to launch the Youth AgriTech Summit, an open innovation program identifying promising agri-tech startups driving sustainability.
Through Babele, Bayer:
-
Scouted & selected the most relevant ventures
-
Engaged employees from multiple business units to explore collaborations
-
Facilitated pilots and even investment discussions with selected startups
Babele provided the end-to-end infrastructure: from application management and curriculum design to seamless collaboration workflows between Bayer teams and innovators.
This approach helped Bayer accelerate innovation adoption and position itself as a venture client — working directly with startups to co-create solutions for the future of agriculture.
Alex Moise, Head of creative Industries - BT
“Babele is intuitive to work with, even for non-technical staff, like myself.
Appreciated the fact that all communications are fully customizable to avoid any cluttering. During our Accelerator, Business Owners adapted fast enough to using the new tools”
