discussions ranging from business development, consumer trends, food safety, marketing management, product development, strategic planning, and things of interest.  FEN members enjoy the benefit of interacting with their peers in a social and professional forum.

The Food Innovation Center launched and supports the Food Entrepreneurs Network, enabling members to seek and receive advice from each other and the Food Innovation Center on business planning, financing, marketing, product development issues and food industry regulations.  FEN members relate to each other in a professional setting free from commercial solicitation, and volunteer to provide advice and assistance to each other as business mentors.

The Food Innovation Center provides members of the Food Entrepreneurs Network the opportunity to attend seminars, to join industry tours, and to be informed about trade conferences and events related to the development and growth of their businesses.  FEN members are encouraged to attend and contribute to meetings and to socially and professionally network with each other.

The Food Innovation Center provides members of the Food Entrepreneurs Network with the ability to download video and audio seminars, presentations, articles and other pertinent information on product, marketing, and business development issues.  FEN members are provided a forum to post their own public domain articles and information.

The Food Innovation Center moderates a searchable online bulletin board for members of the Food Entrepreneurs Network to hold virtual conversations with other members.  FEN members are encouraged to provide each other professional advice and assistance, as well as to discuss business best practices.
