HST Consulting is moving into the agriculture business by setting up a new wing, HST Agriculture. The unit will focus on agriculture capacity building, agricultural project management and market access to agricultural produce. “We will commence service in September 2019 recruiting high calibre and motivated agriculture experts who share our vision,” said Solomon Gizaw, senior partner at HST in charge of consulting and learning solutions. Azege Tegegne (PhD), who used to serve as a principal scientist at the International Livestock Research Institute, has already joined the HST leadership to lead HST Agriculture. The announcement was made during the 15th anniversary of the company held at Hilton Addis Hotel on June 14, 2019. Three partners formed HST and became operational with a staff of 20. The company now has 12 partners and 135 employees.
