Executive Summary
The ongoing Iran war has triggered a severe humanitarian crisis, displacing millions, disrupting 30% of global fertilizer shipments, and creating a food security 'time bomb' set to detonate in June.
This crisis is compounded by a 50% ($40 billion) cut in global humanitarian aid over the past year, straining organizations like the International Rescue Committee (IRC).
In response to global volatility, Bayer is undergoing a radical corporate restructuring, eliminating over two-thirds of its management and decentralizing 95% of decision-making to increase speed and accountability.
Both the humanitarian and corporate sectors are leveraging advanced technology; the IRC uses AI for disease diagnosis in the DRC, while Bayer uses computational biology for drug discovery and is developing gene-edited, self-fertilizing crops.
