Activate Syngenta’s data for sustainable growth

From data silos toprofitable actionacross global agriculture

Syngenta’s leadership in crop protection and seeds is built on science, innovation, and global reach—but data fragmentation and slow insight-to-execution cycles threaten margin, compliance, and competitive edge.

SCIKIQ unifies Syngenta’s enterprise, R&D, and field data into actionable intelligence—accelerating product launches, optimizing supply chains, and ensuring regulatory compliance at global scale.

The architecture

From data visibility to autonomous execution

Built bottom-up, because trust compounds upward: agents are only as safe as the copilot's grounding, the copilot only as reliable as the graph, the graph only as complete as the 360° model beneath it.

Why us

Why SCIKIQ - not another data platform

vs. building it yourself

SCIKIQ delivers an 85% faster integration and 70% lower data-prep cost than custom builds—proven in complex, regulated industries. Syngenta’s teams get a unified, actionable data foundation in weeks, not years.

vs. point tools & BI dashboards

BI dashboards only report; SCIKIQ contextualizes and activates data, connecting root cause to autonomous action—closing the loop on compliance, supply chain, and commercial execution.

vs. generic data fabric / lake

SCIKIQ models Syngenta’s real business entities (batches, trials, regulations, customers) in a knowledge graph—enabling traceability, compliance, and agentic automation beyond what a data lake or fabric alone can deliver.

vs. raw LLMs/chatbots

Generic LLMs hallucinate; SCIKIQ’s Copilot is grounded in Syngenta’s own data, with explainable answers, full lineage, and the ability to trigger real business actions—trusted by boards and regulators.

The outcome

One version of the truth, for the people who run the business

When the four layers are in place, leadership sees a single live view — every number traceable to its source, every alert to its root cause.
