Current Projects and
Projects in Development
Snappy Meals Prep System: We are developing a quick prep meal system that equips people to prepare low cost, quick prep, tasty, healthy meals more consistently. This system provides tools and resources for people to build a personal system that meets their basic daily nutritional needs in the context of the demands and constraints of their daily lives. It is flexible and modular allowing individuals and families to use components that meet their specific needs. We are in the pilot testing and research phase of this project.

Community health intervention research: We partner with researchers to facilitate high-potential intervention research by tapping into the community networks we build through our work.
Product Development and Transition to Market: We translate research ideas, inventions, and innovations into real-world products—and get them into the hands of the people and communities who can benefit most.
Innovate for Good Academy: Our training arm—creating pathways into STEM careers, with a focus on high-tech manufacturing through traineeships, internships, and learning modules co-designed with community colleges and manufacturing training programs. IFG endeavors to contribute to broader efforts to build a larger STEM workforce in the US, particularly in high-tech manufacturing.
Consulting and Speaking Events: We work with organizations through consulting, workshops, and talks—sharing practical expertise on innovation-to-impact and community-centered healthy eating solutions.
Innovation for Small Businesses: A practical support network for early-stage companies with innovative solutions and big ideas—especially founders underrepresented in tech—offering mentorship, targeted resources, and capacity-building in both technical execution and access to capital. This includes pro-bono “operations walk-through” consulting and free, self-guided tutorials on core business fundamentals.
