Our Partners & Network

ROOTICAL

Rootical start-up studio enables purpose-driven entrepreneurs in Uganda to build and own their regenerative agri-food companies. The world needs a paradigm shift. From a linear and wasteful production machine to a complex, living, and adaptive systems approach. Like in nature, we are part of that system, not separated from it.
