Why We Care

Imagine a world where every year you risked losing at least 1/3rd of your business.
This is a reality faced by beekeepers every single year!

The UN says that by 2050 we will need to increase our food production by 50%,
to feed our growing population…

And with 80% of the world food supply in some way dependent on honeybee pollination,
this is more than just a beekeeping problem it’s a world problem. 

 

Our Mission

Blazer aims to digitize the beekeeping industry to enable scientific beekeeping
and thereby save and protect honeybees for future generations.
