Genevieve Leveille on Agriculture and Blockchain Thriving Room
-
- Documentary
Genevieve Leveille is the Principal Founder and CEO of AgriLedger. AgriLedger enables trust, transparency, and traceability through blockchain across the agricultural supply chain. Genevieve led a collaboration with Haiti’s Ministry of Commerce and Industry to deliver a Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) pilot sponsored by the World Bank. The project went live in May 2020, allowing Haitian fruit farmers and consumers to reap the benefits of fairer prices and improved food security.
Genevieve was nominated by the Financial Times to the top 100 BAME in UK technology in 2019, named a winner of the ComputerWeekly 2020 Women in Software, and one of the top 5 finalists for Quesnay’s Female Founders in FinTech in 2019. She is vice-chair of techUK’s Distributed Ledger Technologies Working Group, which provides strategic direction for all UK activities related to DLT and is an inaugural member of the Advisory Group for the Estonian Government’s eResidency initiative. Genevieve has spoken on emerging technologies at numerous conferences and engagements globally and is fluent in English, French, Haitian Creole, and Spanish.
"I always like to imagine the impossible and then try to make it possible." - Genevieve Leveille
We talk about how Genevieve's company uplifts smallholder farmers, how her 25 years of financial services and payments experience helped her to combine AgTech and FinTech, Zoom's upcoming olfactory feature, Haitian soup, and gratitude for family and friends.
