Public-Private Partnerships

IWYP considers the private sector as important partners in developing and delivering our ambitious goal and wishes to engage with companies within the private sector in a manner that is mutually beneficial, both advancing the aims of IWYP and providing benefits for the companies which engage. These benefits include access to a unique network of wheat research organizations, early insights and access under license to tools and technologies developed within IWYP, early access to and information on improved germplasm and the possibility to proactively engage in the research program.
