Cherrie Atilano, AGREA Agricultural Systems International

In episode 4 Andrew talks to Cherrie Atilano, the CEO and President of the for-purpose agribusiness AGREA Agricultural Systems International.

“Every day I always ask myself, is this decision making me sleep peacefully at night. I hope to wake up every day with great optimism and great excitement to be alive because you’re doing something good, you’re changing lives.”

Cherrie Atilano is the “founding farmer” of AGREA, which aims to eradicate poverty for farming and fishing communities, alleviate the impact of climate change, and create food security in her home country of the Philippines.

One of the World Economic Forum’s Young Global Leaders of 2022, Cherrie talks to Andrew about how she founded her business on the core belief that dignifying the agricultural sector is key to its productivity, sustainability and being the point of change in the food system.

This episode was recorded in September 2022.
