Agrifood Innovation Institute (AFII)

The Agrifood Innovation Institute aims to accelerate transformative innovation to future-proof the Australian agrifood system by connecting ANU with industry and entrepreneurs.

We provide industry with a single point of access to the University’s significant research capability and infrastructure, enabling our world-class researchers to collaborate on projects which tackle complex long-term agrifood challenges.

We build interdisciplinary teams, harnessing the University’s research excellence in science, technology, engineering and mathematics, as well as the humanities, arts and social sciences. In doing so, we help to translate research into real-world impact, while helping to build the capability the industry needs for the future through education and training programs.

We operate a vibrant Agrifood Hub, which is home to a community of innovative and award-winning businesses with global reach. This provides a connection point between the University and the thriving Canberra innovation community.
