This structure will continue to expand our ability to increasingly deliver customer-inspired innovation, enhancing their noble work of feeding and building a more sustainable world.”

CNH Industrial Ventures builds upon existing and successfully executed minority stake investments with the following partners: Augmenta, USA / Greece; Bennamann, United Kingdom; Gearflow, USA; Geoprospectors, Austria; Monarch Tractor, USA; The Westly Group, USA; Zasso, Switzerland / Brazil.
