With the expertise that this talented group of people brings under our roof, we envision taking delivery systems to a completely new level and ultimately enriching how consumers experience our customers’ products.”

“We are genuinely excited to welcome our new colleagues to the IFF R&D family,” said Dr. Gregory Yep, Chief Scientific and Sustainability Officer for IFF. “This is the type of technology that cuts across all our business units and spurs innovation across the company – creating excitement for our teams and for our customers.”
