Syngenta, a global agribusiness, faced the challenge of accessing specialized external talent to innovate its research and development processes. Operating outside major tech hubs, the company sought to use data analytics to model probable outcomes for crop solutions, a process that traditionally took seven years and cost hundreds of millions of dollars. To address this, Syngenta turned to Wazoku and its crowdsourcing platform to find a tool for visually representing field test results and highlighting anomalies.

Wazoku posted Syngenta's challenge to its global crowd of solvers, receiving over 200 proposed solutions. The selected tool automated data entry and provided an intuitive, easy-to-understand output. This solution had immediate real-world impacts, enabling field managers to quickly understand and rectify errors in trials. By leveraging Wazoku's open innovation approach, Syngenta gained access to cutting-edge expertise, leading to smarter processes and leaner research.
