Technological innovation is reshaping how natural resources are valued, managed, and traded. From traceability tools in mining to digital marketplaces for agriculture, the integration of data systems across commodity sectors can drive accountability, improve transparency, and unlock new forms of economic participation.

The Stratum Institute explores how digitization and data visibility can address bottlenecks in resource supply chains, enhance compliance, and empower local actors. We focus on building digital infrastructure that strengthens trust, improves coordination, and ensures that innovation serves both economic and environmental goals.

Our work spans the design of data systems, digital contracting tools, and analytics platforms for monitoring compliance, performance, and impact across commodity supply chains.
