Rencontres Africa 2026

Far from the buzz of innovation-as-an-end-in-itself, Brad Technology stands at the crossroads of technology, agriculture and real impact. At Rencontres Africa and across meetings with major Ivorian institutions, we are preparing the rollout of the Brad probe, apps and "Hey Brad" — our voice AI agent — for African farmers. A real-time agronomic infrastructure that reconciles ground truth with large-scale data analysis, addressing a triple imperative: vital adaptation to climate change, soil biodiversity preservation, and farm profitability. Built on Open Data, Open Source and Open Hardware, Brad guarantees technological sovereignty — data and compute can stay within a country's borders. Warm thanks to risingSUD, Business France and the Team France Export Sud for opening these doors.
