AG1, the foundational nutrition company led by CEO Kat Cole, has been experiencing remarkable growth — with Forbes recently highlighting how Cole helped triple the company’s revenue and steer AG1’s expansion into new frontiers of health and business success.
At the same time, AG1 has been deepening its scientific foundation through a strategic partnership with the University of California, Davis, and the Innovation Institute for Food and Health (IIFH). Announced in 2025, this collaboration brings UC Davis’s world-class expertise in food, health, and data sciences together with AG1’s product innovation to accelerate precision nutrition and metabolic health research.
The partnership leverages advanced omics analytics and UC Davis’s research initiatives to inform next-generation nutritional products and translate rigorous science into real-world impact. AG1’s leadership has emphasized that UC Davis’s collaborative research approach helps ensure their products are grounded in credible, evidence-based science as they evolve beyond foundational nutrition toward broader metabolic health solutions.
This alignment of research excellence and commercial execution exemplifies how academic partnerships can underpin market success in the nutrition space — supporting both innovation and consumer trust.
