MEET OUR NEWEST INDUSTRY PARTNER!

Innovate-A-thon (IAT) has joined with Bayer for an exclusive, three-week, innovation sprint event focusing on regenerative agriculture. Students from Purdue and other universities will work in this unique innovation sprint model to address, among other things, supply chain relationships and optimized outcomes for this important topic.


9-15 students from Purdue and other universities, based on field of study, will work in 3-5 person teams to identify, ideate, and create technically and economically viable solutions to increase effectiveness and efficiency in sustainability within regenerative agriculture. The sprint is scheduled to start in late February.  Stay tuned for updates!


Bayer is no stranger to working with universities to explore new ideas and concepts.  Through this sponsored project with IAT, members of Bayer’s team, industry mentors, and IAT SMEs will work with students to create new pathways that will aid Bayer in their sustainability goals.



We are excited that our model can contribute to this important mission!  All students receive a scholarship and a powerful way to demonstrate their abilities to potential future employers.
