January 24, 2018
The University of Guelph has launched a new initiative called Accelerator Guelph that will see cutting-edge agri-food innovations turned into products and applications. “Our researchers have bold, ambitious ideas, and their work addresses gaps and helps solve problems while shaping the future of food and agriculture in Canada and beyond,” said UoGuelph vice-president (research) Malcolm Campbell. “They also promote industry collaboration and accelerating growth in the thriving agri-food sector.” Accelerator Guelph's four-phase program will mentor UoGuelph agri-food entrepreneurs through business planning, executive leadership training, financial and accounting expertise, and human resources management.
