Innovate Animal Ag is a 501(c)3 nonprofit think tank that promotes technology as a practical way to improve animal health and welfare while also restoring consumer trust in animal agriculture. We conduct research on cutting-edge technologies that can improve animal health and welfare, then publish high-quality, science-backed resources to demystify the technologies for business leaders and policymakers. We then work directly with the companies developing and implementing these technologies to ensure they are rewarded for the important work they do.

Technology is powerful because it eliminates tradeoffs - it can allow us to meet the expectations of the modern consumer around animal welfare, while simultaneously ensuring we can maintain an abundant supply of safe and affordable animal protein.

Leveraging our extensive experience and connections in the Silicon Valley tech ecosystem, our goal is to help stakeholders navigate the complexities of emerging technologies. We work with producers, investors, grantmakers, researchers and policymakers to understand the cutting edge of animal agriculture (not just our core focus areas of in-ovo sexing and on-farm hatching), and how it might affect their operations.

Working with Innovate Animal Ag has been really valuable. In-ovo sexing technology has developed quickly over the last few years, and the team at IAA has done a great job providing timely and relevant information.
