A proud moment for our Seeds R&D teams. 👏 Syngenta has been recognized as the 2026 Data Disruptor at the Hakkoda Data Innovation Awards during Snowflake Summit. The award recognizes the work we've done to transform how scientific data is managed across Seeds R&D, moving from fragmented legacy systems to a modern platform that can process genomic and breeding data at unprecedented scale and speed. As Sardar Afra, Head of Data Science & Engineering, shared ~ "The value of AI is ultimately constrained by the scale, quality, and accessibility of the data that powers it." By modernizing our scientific data ecosystem, we're enabling our scientists to spend less time waiting for data and more time accelerating discovery. This recognition reflects the dedication, expertise, and collaboration of teams across Seeds R&D and our partners around the world. Congratulations to everyone involved.
