The workshop is open to last year undergraduate students, Master's and PhD students, post-doctoral and academic researchers working on issues related to food, nutrition and health.
The one week FHEP, based on the methodology developed by the University of California Davis is designed for those who want to explore the potential of their idea / technology in the context of the market, prepare for a career in the industry or take the first steps towards lunching a new venture.
During five days, participants will work on their project through seminars, practical exercises and mentoring sessions to finally answer questions like for example. :
-How to evaluate my project from the market point of view?
-How to protect my research with a patent?
-How to efficiently communicate the potential of my research to the food sector?
The Program Faculty is composed of speakers and mentors like industry executives, investors and entrepreneurs and will be led by Pegram Harrison, professor of entrepreneurship in the Saïd Business School at Oxford University. The event food company sponsor is Pepsico.
