Chivas Venture 2020 Finals

Crover shares $1 Million prize with the other venture finalists

We’re pleased to announce that Crover, one of the finalists of the 2020 Chivas Venture Global Competition, has received its share of this year’s $1 million prize; due to the current COVID-19 global pandemic, the prize money has been equally distributed among the 26 participants before the Global Final so each business can focus on creating positive impact.

Whilst our preference would have been to experience the thrill and challenge of the full Chivas Venture competition - learning from the 25 other finalists and pitching our business to judges - given the current situation facing the world, we fully support the decision to curtail the competition . We are extremely grateful to the Chivas Venture for its continued support.

We are confident that after this emergency, more opportunities will arise and there will be more competitions and challenges in the future for our team to be a part of! 

All of us here at Crover would also like to give our sincere thanks and appreciation to all those people that are fighting this pandemic: the Medical practitioners, the workers in essential sectors such as food production and distribution, and also our fellow Bayes Centre residents that are using data to better understand the virus and it spreading.

We want to extend our sympathy as well to all those who are affected in any way by this emergency.

We also hope that once this pandemic is over and we have left this period of worries, lockdowns and panic buying, we will have a better understanding of the importance of a strong and reliable food supply chain that can keep functioning even during the harshest crisis. 

We are lucky enough to be able to continue working remotely and keeping our development and progress going. 

We promise that we will be putting all our resources and effort to good use and to do everything that is in our capacity to create a more resilient, and inevitably global, food system.

Stay home, stay safe, and keep #SavingGrains.
