NEW YORK CITY—Demonstrating that technological innovation extends beyond the tech industry itself, Italian confectionary group Ferrero International S.A. will take space at Forest City New York's Bridge at Cornell Tech.

Ferrero's Open Innovation Science division will drive discovery, evaluation and integration plans of relevant external science, technology and entrepreneurial innovations in its new space at the Bridge, where its neighbors will include Two Sigma and Citigroup along with Cornell Tech graduates and faculty.

“Technology has become integral to all industries, not just our tech sector,” says MaryAnne Gilmartin, president and CEO of Forest City New York. “At the Bridge, we are closing the gap between academia and industry to drive new partnerships and accelerate new technologies and products to market.”
