The FMI Foundation has been hard at work to support its first-ever Midwinter scholarship program. This program brings 4-5 undergraduate and graduate students from food-related programs to attend FMI's signature event, the Midwinter Executive Conference.

Students are able to experience the wide variety of programming and educational events Midwinter has to offer: lunch & learns, workshops, networking events, and reflection opportunities. Sponsoring companies also have the ability to mentor students and to offer exposure to Midwinter's key programs: the Strategic Executive Exchange (SEEs) program, FMItech, and others.

Check out our 2026 Midwinter scholars. Celebrate on LinkedIn by showing your support of the program or your alma mater! #MidwinterScholars
