This is a remote position.
The Alliance of Bioversity-CIAT aims to develop a step-by-step guide for the agriculture research community on a Product Development Process that is effective in bringing research and innovation to the market. The objective of the guide is to provide agricultural scientists with an evidence-based guide for how to plan, execute, support and eventually exit from the process of taking research innovations to market through scaling service providers. This guide has significant opportunity for impact by improving efficacy of agricultural tools and services, as well as informing the agriculture research institutions about priorities to create an enabling environment for high impact innovations entering industry. Without these changes, the metaphorical ‘valley of death’ will continue to swallow up the majority of digital products resulting from agriculture research processes.
Deliverable: Brief report (e.g. 15-20 pages) describing the steps for taking research-driven innovations into accessible services and platforms that reach users to inform key decisions. The report should cover best practices from literature and practical experience in the innovation commercialization space (e.g. Tech Transfer or Incubator programs for example). The report must be relevant to agriculture scientists and therefore will also need to be grounded in recent and relatable product development processes case studies. We will provide the student with access to 2-3 scientists and their teams working on digital product development such as a digital climate advisory system (DACA) and a pest & weed early warning system.
Location: Mostly remote, with a one-week trip to Kigali, Rwanda strongly recommended as part of the case study development.
Duration: Minimum time commitment of 3 months, full time.
This position is short-term for an intern or student. A generous living stipend will be paid per month of full-time engagement [e.g. $1,500 per month, plus any required travel]. A minimum 3-month engagement is required.
Applications must be submitted via email and include the subject “Product Development Process for Ag Research–“. Cover letter and CV should be saved as one document using the format “LAST NAME_first name–” for ease of sorting. The application document should also include the names and email addresses of three referees who are knowledgeable about the candidate’s academic and/or professional qualifications. Applications should be submitted by EMAIL ONLY to: m.ouedraogo@cgiar.org
