There is no shortage of big problems facing humanity, but there is a shortage of passionate and ambitious founders trying to solve them. However, more than ever before, entrepreneurs building "Frontier Technology" can truly change the world. At the "Future of Food", event you can meet and hear from entrepreneurs and corporations tackling the major food problems facing humanity, and maybe even learn how you can start harnessing your passion and ambition to do the same. We will also be issuing a "Food Founder Fellowship" sponsored by the S Group, which allows selected applicants to join the upcoming FI program for free. To qualify, please apply here: http://fi.co/join/sgroup

“I find out what the world needs. Then, I go ahead and invent it.” - Thomas Edison

The topic of this event has been changed to focus on Food Technology because we have partnered with S group to launch our first ever Food Tech Syndicate in Helsinki!
