Were transforming the global food system by creating better ways to make meat, dairy and fish without using animals -- delicious, good for people, and good for the planet. Our approach: understand what people love about meat, dairy, and fish, and then explore the plant world for specific ingredients that recreate those experiences. In 2016, we launched the Impossible™ Burger: meat made from plants, for people who love to eat meat. Founded in 2011 by Pat Brown MD, PhD (Stanford Professor Emeritus) and backed by top-tier VCs and visionaries, we’re looking for the very best scientists, engineers, food developers, and business professionals in the world to join our creative, diverse, multi-talented and mission-driven team. We’re here to secure a sustainable future (and have fun while doing it). Come work with us to change the course of history.

The New York Shipping Exchange (NYSHEX) was founded in 2015 to solve the problem of poor contract fulfillment caused by misaligned incentives and disconnected execution. This results in $23 billion of economic waste that impacts all shippers, carriers and NVOCCs. NYSHEX offers shared digital infrastructure that helps to align incentives, connect execution, strengthen relationships, and reduce manual work. NYSHEX’s Proactive Performance Management (PPM) technology helps users to jointly manage allocations and plans, and to be alerted in real time when any shipment goes off plan. The NYSHEX indices make it easier for everyone to use contracts linked to an index, which removes a carrier’s incentive to curtail allocations when spot rates rise above contract rates, and a shipper’s incentive to shift volumes when spot rates drop below contract rates.
