Protecting Pollinators,
People & the Planet

Innovation at the Service of Bees

The World Bee Project CIC is the first private initiative in the world that supports, connects and amplifies new technologies and scientific study to improve the health and wellbeing of bees and other pollinators.

We Need Bees

Over 75% of the nutritious food we eat depends on pollination. Pollination sustains global food security, crop production, farmer livelihoods, wild plant diversity, ecosystem balance, healthy soils and clean air.

The Bees Need Us

Intensive farming, harmful pesticides, overpopulation, urban sprawl, loss of floral habitats, deforestation and climate change are all placing devastating pressures on pollinators. We address the need to improve understanding of the varying pressures on bees in different regions of the world.

Connecting Hives, Connecting Lives

The World Bee Project uses Artificial Intelligence (AI), data analytics and the Internet of Things (IoT), and works with local communities and global organisations to merge social, environmental and economic benefits to positively impact the future of Pollinators, People, and the Planet.

Mission

Our mission is to blend cutting edge computing technology with world leading bee research to safeguard global pollinator pollinations.  

Vision

Our vision is to deliver state of the art knowledge directly to the hundreds of millions of smallholder farmers around the world to enhance the contribution of pollinators to food security, farmer livelihoods and national economies

The World Hive Network©

The World Hive Network© is the world’s first global bee database. Powered by Oracle cloud services, it uses AI, IoT and Big Data driven technology to gather real time bee ‘intelligence’ from monitored hives all over the world.

World Bee City©

World Bee City© seeks to regenerate cities by harmonising landscapes. It is a global initiative to transform urban design by placing pollinators at the heart of urban landscapes to enhance the wellbeing of all residents, people, bees, butterflies, birds and wildlife.

World Bee Mark©

The World Bee Mark© is an ecolabel that certifies that a product on a store shelf was produced on a farm that has adopted pollinator-friendly practices that improve bee and pollinator health and human wellbeing.

World Bee Hives© 

World Bee Hives© is a platform that protects beekeeper livelihoods by creating a link between people who love genuine, provenance-guaranteed honey and beekeepers who demonstrate that they follow sustainable practices and produce genuine honey.
