Stefan Steffen

Director of Data and AI, CENFRI

As a leader in digital, data & AI, and business strategy, I have extensive experience in the financial services and information technology sectors, with a strong focus on strategic business engagement underpinned by analytical insight. My strength lies in leveraging the data disciplines and AI to unlock value through insights-driven decision-making.

I lead the Data for Digital Agriculture Transformation joint programme in Tanzania, a collaboration led by the UNCDF. In this role, I drive the technical vision for data interoperability and the secure data exchange between public and private sector players to overcome data silos, ultimately empowering smallholder farmers.

I also contribute to the formulation and implementation of a comprehensive data and AI strategy for Cenfri, enhancing internal AI capabilities, and developing a responsible AI governance framework.
