Hi all, The top-20 finalists made their pitch yesterday but unfortunately we did not make it further to the top-10. Thanks so much for all of your best wishes! Here is a version of the 5 min pitch I delivered, time permitting it would have been great to build this together and highlight the unique collaboration model, but this is what we managed:

Also attaching the list of top-20 finalists. The ones related to environment and agriculture are listed below and the overall setup was good to get a sense of where the world the moving and to compare our work with the rest.
- Important point to note for all of us is that there's stiff competition with use of data in this space with the need to demonstrate scale and direct action, and we have some way to cover, we cannot fall into a comfort zone.
- And there's different types of use-cases, with a lot around connecting data with insurance and other finance products, so for us with the CoRE stack where we are mostly looking at community-based use-cases for local action and haven't really demonstrated any business model so far, we need to work out our envisioned landscape stewardship model to bring finance for landscape stewardship.
Top-10
