Wabash Heartland Innovation Network

The Wabash Heartland Innovation Network (WHIN) is a non-profit organization based in Indiana that is dedicated to researching and evaluating cutting-edge technologies from around the world and facilitating their adoption with manufacturers and farmers.

WHIN accelerates the adoption of emerging technologies that create real value. We are neither a technology vendor nor a research institution. We are a trusted intermediary that sits between the innovation happening in labs and tech companies, and the farmers, supervisors, and administrators who need it to actually work in practice.
