As highlighted at the October event, Ana Brandusescu is based at the European Commission Centre de Technologie Agricole and she will explain some leading edge AgTech projects in emerging markets, such as: participatory 3D modelling; insights from some of the most effective open source apps such as frontlineSMS; and the untapped power of the Google visualisation toolset.
She was previously based in Washington DC at the World Wide Web Foundation on a project funded by eBay founder Pierre Omidyar, where she helped the World Bank draft a new international standard on public sector procurement to reflect the shift to Freedom of Information legislation. The standard was released on 17th November 2014: OCDS 2014
