Did you notice a shortage of food at supermarkets during covid? Have you heard about the recent issues in the global shipping industry? or perhaps you’ve heard about the shortages of microchips? These problems are called supply chain disruptions. They have been increasing in frequency and severity. Supply chain disruptions are threatening our very way of life.

Our vision is to advance society’s capacity to withstand shocks and stresses. Kavida.ai believes the only way to ensure security is through supply chain resiliency. We are on a mission to help companies proactively manage disruption supply chain disruption risks using integrated data.

Our Story

In March 2020 over 35 academics, data scientists, students, and software engineering volunteers came together to address the food shortage issues caused by the pandemic - Covid19foodsupply.com. A core team of 9 was formed and spun off into a startup and the rest is history.

Our investors include one of the world's largest supply chain quality & compliance monitoring companies, a £1.25bn apparel manufacturer, and some very impressive angel investors.
