"We’re at an inflection point in our business. The world is [quickly] changing and this kind of experience that we’re having here today is really helping us look at where the world is going, and... find expansive ways of looking at how the new technology might create new worlds for us."

- Thatcher Schulte, Senior Director, Supply Sciences Conagra Brands

Conagra Brands is part of an 800 billion dollar packaged food industry that has an increasingly competitive landscape. With consumer behavior shifting and technology becoming more prevalent in the kitchen, Conagra was faced with the challenge of finding innovative ways to better understand consumer needs as they relate to food. As a result, Conagra’s Data Analytics team contacted EX3 Labs for assistance in three key areas:

• Increasing awareness around emerging technology
• Identifying opportunities to use emerging technology throughout their brand portfolio
• Introducing a framework to rapidly produce and develop ideas to bolster the innovation pipeline
