OBJECTIVE

Agriculture is designated as critical infrastructure, but it operates without the strategic redundancies or long-term planning required of other critical sectors. The result is fragile supply chains, slow recovery from disruption, and limited capacity for innovation at scale.

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR

F3i was founded to fill this gap by building new investment models, workforce pathways, and operational resources that enable foundational technologies to achieve field-hardened, widespread adoption.

HOW TO APPLY

Headquartered in California’s Central Valley, where half the nation’s fresh fruit, vegetables, and nuts are grown across 5 million acres of farmland.

We work with an ecosystem of partners dedicated to building the global hub for large-scale agricultural innovation. Our focus is on fostering groundbreaking technology, cultivating talent, and turning research into real-world solutions that benefit local farmers, agribusinesses, and the global food system.
