Some recent capability projects
For FoodSA, in partnership with the University of Adelaide, we developed AskSASI.com.au an LLM/ ChatGPT based tool for identifying environmental requirements in Australian export markets. It uses a series of questions to fill out a Large Language Model enquiry and provides natural language answers to users telling them whether their existing accreditations can be used in export markets or what environmental accreditations are most suitable for their target market.
For Australian Grape and Wine, we built USAWineMarketTool.com to help wine exporters navigate the USA and help them understand the complex 3-tier distribution system. It helps identify the legal constraints in the US by state and has three databases of wine retailers and wine bars..
For Wine Australia, We developed and delivered Growing WIne Exports a highly regarded program of practical tools and workshops delivered to over 600 wineries in 3-years to support export growth. “Professionally executed program that provided the tools needed to successfully enter new markets…Thank you.” Participant, Growing Wine Exports.
For Wine Australia, we co-developed and co-delivered Growing Wine Tourism with Winery Tourism Australia and the Australian Tourism Export Council, this highly practical export capability program that won a Wine Impact Award in 2019 for its significant contribution to the wine industry.
