HOUSTON (February 20, 2024) – Brighter Bites BB #:371141, a national nonprofit that delivers fresh fruits and vegetables directly into families’ hands, recently participated in a Harvard Agribusiness Seminar as one of twelve case studies presented. Around 185 executives of food system-related firms from around the world attended to learn more about trends, challenges, demands, and opportunities within the current food system.
“We are thankful to Harvard Business School faculty and business leaders who provided invaluable input to strengthen our business model and achieve greater impact,” said Shreela V Sharma, Ph.D., RD, LD, and Brighter Bites co-founder.
As a case study participant, Brighter Bites was able to gather insight from various business professionals from around the world to help further its mission. Furthermore, attendees were educated and informed on Brighter Bites program and commitment to building communities of health nationwide.
“It was such a great honor to spend time with hundreds of extraordinary businesspeople from around the globe and receive expert feedback regarding Brighter Bites’ program and mission,” said Rich Dachman, CEO of Brighter Bites. “It was an experience of a lifetime.”
The content and feedback that the nonprofit received during the seminar will be put forth to continue growing its presence across the nation to further support positive change in under-resourced communities.
