In this episode of What’s at Stake, Penta Partners Bryan DeAngelis and Andrea Christianson explore how artificial intelligence is reshaping the agricultural and agri-food supply chain. They’re joined by Francisco Martin-Rayo, CEO of Helios AI, a company using advanced machine learning and global data integration to forecast prices, manage supply risk, and anticipate weather-driven disruptions.

Francisco shares how his own journey led him to tackle one of the most complex challenges in global commerce: building more predictable, transparent, and resilient food supply chains.

Together, they discuss the role of AI in price forecasting, the challenges of adaptation facing farmers worldwide, and how governments, businesses, and innovators can work together to secure the future of food.
