Synnefa

Big Idea: 
Smart greenhouses for farmers in Kenya

Synnefa creates richer, more climate-resilient cash crop farmers. Their modular greenhouses and precision farming tech helps smallholder farmers grow more using less resources. Synnefa also provides farmers with access to traditional ag products like inputs and training, and can connect them to logistics and other market linkage companies.
