Journey Labs
A research program, not a blog post.
Journey Labs points the data behind Journey AI at malnutrition, supply chains, alternative proteins, and food security.
What is Journey Labs?
We believe collective action is the fastest way to solve problems in the food system, so Journey Labs works with schools, government, and healthcare partners on special projects, instead of keeping the ingredient and supply chain data inside one company.
The more that data is shared with other people building in the space, the faster the food system changes. That is the premise of the program: a novel ingredient and supply chain database, opened up to researchers and future food leaders who share the same goal.
Applications
What you can explore with Journey Labs.
Projects are guided by the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Each topic below is a standing area of the program, not a finished report.
Case study
A school partnership, not a logo wall.
Food technology has a diversity problem: many universities and their students are left out of conversations that fund the projects that could change the food system.
The Fellowship gives students and young entrepreneurs from underrepresented backgrounds access to Journey's data and network, so an idea can move faster than it would on its own.
“I started as an intern during my senior year and stayed, because of the mission. We were able to launch two new pilots that are now right in the platform.”
