IGG and Fayetteville State Sign R & D Partnership Agreement
Fayetteville State University has entered into a partnership agreement with INGATEYGEN (IGG), LLC. The agreement targets the expanding research, education, and innovation productivity in the Department of Biological Sciences at Fayetteville State University.
IGG is an agriculture biotech company that is developing an Allergen Reduced Peanut (ARP) plant, while providing many other services to industry, including: (1) nutritional composition labeling, (2) Non-allergens and Non-GMO labeling, (3) testing for pesticides, fertilizers and other agrochemicals, and (4) testing for plant tissues, soil and water quality. In recent years, FSU has aspired to develop strong STEM programs, build an innovative culture, promote innovative thinking, and promote economic development in Fayetteville and in southeastern North Carolina. Thus, the collaboration between the two entities has the potential to provide many new educational and economic benefits.
