SCOPEinsight launches the Local Expert Network
Combining SCOPE services with valuable local knowledge
On April 16, 2020, SCOPEinsight launched the Local Expert Network (LEN) with experts from around the world. This network is a unique opportunity for local businesses to complete their service offering by adding SCOPE products and services.
The Local Expert Network offers and delivers local implementation power
The Local Expert Network offers the standardized, evidence-based SCOPE products and services in combination with local expert knowledge provided by local entrepreneurs. The local knowledge and expertise is important to ensure the benefits of using the SCOPE methodology are maximized. These experts know their business. Organizations who wish to use the SCOPE products, but do not have a local team or lack the implementation power, can now in selected countries contract a Local Expert and feel confident the project is delivered as required.
“The globally acclaimed SCOPE tools give us credibility and help us improve our services, which are fully aligned to the SCOPE tools. We gave grown our business since we offer the SCOPE services as part of our full-service offer. Our clients are happy with the comprehensive data insights.”

Our experts are carefully selected. They are strategic thinkers who are fully committed to delivering topnotch services with lasting results and impact. Over time, with the further expansion of the network, the Local Expert together creates an ecosystem of implementers who all speak the same language and work with the same data. This is expected to leads to efficiently run programs, as the shared learnings are incorporated into each new program. It also facilitates market linkages for agribusinesses, as the Experts jointly grow the ecosystem of stakeholders able to work with the SCOPE scores and data.
