The Dairy Runway Program welcomes food entrepreneurs and dairy innovators with early-stage ideas for value-added dairy products to participate in a free Cornell University-hosted entrepreneurship course focused on initial product concept, customer discovery, and prototyping.
Up to six teams will be selected for the cohort and participate in a multi-week virtual course that combines synchronous classes, self-directed online learning, and individualized business coaching. Throughout the course, industry experts and food entrepreneurs will present on product branding, consumer trends, and the challenges of bringing novel products to market.
Participants who successfully complete the course will advance to the program’s kitchen incubator stage to work one-on-one with Cornell Entrepreneurs-in-Residence and to test their product’s formulation with food technicians and dairy specialists.
This cohort is for food innovators located anywhere in the Northeast developing products using cow, goat, or sheep milk produced in the 11-state region.
