Public Health Innovations is a business-to-business ideation and consulting company. We are in the business of innovation for public health intervention to prevent diseases that occur in schools, healthcare environments, and from food service (restaurants), retail, and food manufacturing facilities.
Our company's business model is to foster business-to-business consultations to prevent diseases and to form partnerships to improve on or develop new market verticals for a client's existing intellectual property.
We also design and develop our own intellectual property into products that can improve the public health through food safety, prevention of healthcare associated infections (HAI's), and childhood safety in schools.
Friends and Colleagues,
I started Public Health Innovations in 2015 after a career in four major areas of the science of public health; Government (CDC), Academia (Emory University School of Medicine), Military (US Army Consequence Management) and the Food Industry (Chick-fil-A Food Safety). This is where I led research on new scientific knowledge, development of new intervention test, tools and strategies, and finally how to implement many of them to prevent diseases and save lives.
Each phase of my career journey gave me new knowledge and perspectives on how to innovate via collaboration to help others develop and make programs and products that can save lives. Public Health Innovations, or PHI as we like to call ourselves, can now help you innovate new products and services, and also show the business value of your products to your customers via our team of experienced expert scientist.
