About us

We believe that sustainably feeding the global population will require a unique, ecosystem approach to drive more innovation in the area of agrifood technology, Our History The Yield Lab Institute was formed in July 2017 by team members of The Yield Lab. We saw the opportunity and the need to engage in agrifoodtech entrepreneurship in a meaningful way outside of the venture capital model. The Problem: Agtech investment is peaking BUT: 1. Connectivity within and between stakeholder groups remains limited. 2. “Impact” (environmental/social) investment is largely qualitative. 3. Innovative solutions to crucial problems continues to lag. 4. Adoption isn’t keeping up. Our Focus: The Yield Lab Institute is focused on driving more effective innovation to the market. We believe that this can be done by attracting greater diversity of innovators to agrifood tech space, and by clearly communicating the needs of current stakeholders. We can do this in a multitude of ways, from researching, advising, and consulting in specific ecosystems, to incentivizing and assisting entrepreneurship in specific sectors of ag.
