Eleven agribusiness and food safety students were accompanied by faculty member Nick Pasculli and Ag Institute Director Dr. Susan Pheasant to San Francisco to participate in BrandStorm 2015 which was hosted by the United Fresh Produce Marketing & Merchandising Council. The event focused on agricultural marketing strategies, maximizing opportunities via available marketing channels, engaging in case studies, and building a brand narrative. Our students had the opportunity to network with agribusiness marketing leaders from not only our own Salinas Valley but also attendees representing key firms all over the United States. The Ag Institute’s iAgriculture program is focused on agricultural career exploration, identification of skills necessary to excel in those careers, and how Hartnell programs of study can lead to success. We would especially like to express our gratitude to United Fresh for the generous scholarships they provided to our students.
