Georgian and Indian organizations have formed a partnership following the 2026 World Economic Forum Annual Meeting in Davos to support women working in agriculture and expand their access to technology and training.
Business and Technology University (BTU) and ADGA EXIM LLP reached the agreement during the global meeting. The initiative focuses on strengthening women’s economic participation in agritech by improving skills, encouraging the use of agricultural technologies and increasing awareness of climate-smart practices.
The program will launch in Georgia and India, with plans to expand into the South Caucasus, Eastern Europe and Central Asia. Organizers said the effort is intended to support women entrepreneurs and workers in agriculture, particularly those in blue-collar roles.
The partnership includes the development of joint educational programs, as well as training and reskilling initiatives aimed at women in agritech. It also outlines the exchange of trainers, mentors and international experts between the two countries.
In addition, the collaboration will involve organizing seminars, workshops, webinars and conferences focused on agriculture and technology. The groups also plan to work together on research and innovation projects, with a focus on sustainable agriculture.
Support for women-led startups is another component of the agreement. This includes mentorship opportunities and access to international networks. The partnership also aims to facilitate trade and create market-entry opportunities between Georgia and India.
BTU said the initiative aligns with the Women’s Empowerment Principles, which promote gender equality, leadership and professional development for women across sectors.
