Call for Innovation Sandbox

We invite practitioners, innovators, civil servants, state departments, industries, civil society, development sector, industry bodies, governments, and policy enthusiasts, to submit relevant pitches describing their solution/work addressing the complexities of modern food systems.

What you can submit/showcase:

1. Policy pilots or governance innovations
2. Technology or data-enabled solutions
3. Institutional or financing models
4. Behavioural or demand-side interventions
5. Multi-stakeholder or cross-sector partnerships

We urge you to join the conversation that treats the food system as it is: complex, adaptive, and deeply interconnected. For lasting impact, we are aligning the levers of Policy, Markets, and Culture, while building on the foundation of Technology, Gender, Climate, and Geopolitics.

Your innovation could be one of the top ten selected for this exclusive showcase! Selected innovators will receive dedicated guidance on pitch refinement and moderation support from BIPP’s research team.

Top 10 selected innovations will be awarded at the event. The Public Policy Dialogues will be held on March 20-22 at the ISB Hyderabad campus.

Deadline: February 28, 2026
