Things are growing here at Inari. Today we marked the grand opening of our new 42,000-square-foot facility in West Lafayette. More than doubling our greenhouse space in Indiana, the $20 million expansion enables us to accelerate the development and commercialization of our step-change products to meet market demand. A special thank you to ambassador Kip Tom, J. Brock Herr, Esq. and Karen Plaut for celebrating with us. Your ongoing support for Indiana and innovation is immensely appreciated.

Our CEO Ponsi Trivisvavet was just named one of Seed World United States’ Top 15 Management Mavericks. Seed World describes a Management Maverick as someone who “tends to break away from conventional expectations, showing creativity and originality” – and we think that’s an apt description for Ponsi. As she dedicates her life’s work to tackling some of the world’s biggest, most vexing challenges, she is also working to redefine leadership by building a culture of open communication, innovation and collaboration. Congratulations to Ponsi on this well-deserved recognition. Learn more about the award and all the honorees here: https://lnkd.in/dhjfmzsW

“Instead of carrying out a single gene edit at a time, multiplex gene editing allows multiple genes to be targeted all at once. This may be beneficial given the increasingly complex interrelations of climate threats, where a crop can be under multiple types of stress at the same time,” writes Christine Ro for BBC News. Read her full article for a fascinating look at the broad-ranging work being done to "disaster-proof" crops, including our efforts at Inari to help support a more sustainable global food system.
