Linda Kamau is the Chief Executive Officer of SowPrecise Africa, an agri-tech startup in Kenya pioneering affordable, climate-smart irrigation. She leads the development of SunRider, a mobile solar-powered irrigation system designed to eliminate the high upfront costs that often lock low-income farmers out of irrigation. Farmers access irrigation through a service-based model, paying only a nominal fee per use. This innovation reduces dependence on fossil fuel powered irrigation pumps mitigating carbon emissions while increasing productivity and farmer incomes.

She is passionate about circular agribusiness and focuses on building inclusive value chains in food production that uplift women and youth, positioning SowPrecise as a scalable solution for food security in East Africa.
