Uncommon Connections

Creating opportunities for academia and industry to collaborate

We catalyze innovation in food and health by connecting companies, investors and researchers, moving transformative technologies out of academia and into the marketplace. Our annual Partner Summit, Discovery Forums, and thematic symposiums bring together experts and industry stakeholders to foster collaborations that will have profound impacts on the health and well-being of people and the planet.

Events

The IIFH hosts various events bringing together people who don’t normally collaborate in order to create uncommon connections that lead to innovation and impact.
