Established in 2009, the Global Food Protection Institute is dedicated to protecting the world’s food supply through FDA-aligned training, advancing new food protection technologies and convening forums for the transformative exchange of ideas about food protection. The Institute provides an overarching intellectual and organizational umbrella that empowers its three distinct food protection initiatives.
· FDA-aligned training of food inspectors and regulators under the International Food Protection Training Institute
· Forum for entrepreneurs to showcase their cutting-edge food protection technologies to potential investors under the Technology Initiative
· Symposia convening premier global thought leaders and policymakers concerned with food protection worldwide through the Symposia Initiative
Start-up funding for the Institute has been generously provided by the W.K. Kellogg Foundation. For more information, visit www.gfpi.org.
