Our Story<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Nile Point grew out of work at the intersection of agriculture, international development and technology. In 2010, founder Emmet Murphy was managing a large USAID food security program in Haiti when the devastating earthquake struck. The response highlighted both the importance of strong local systems and the potential for technology to help field teams operate more effectively in difficult environments.<\/p>\n

That experience eventually helped inspire the creation of Nile Point in 2013. The firm initially combined international development expertise with digital tools for agriculture and field operations, working with organizations including CARE and Food for the Hungry.<\/p>\n

Since then, Nile Point\u2019s work has evolved with the agricultural sector. Today, we bring that same practical, field-oriented approach to agricultural technology commercialization, market development and investment\u2014helping companies and partners move promising ideas from strategy into real-world application in California and emerging markets.<\/p>\n
