A few weeks ago, I worked at Kellogg Global Headquarters in Battle Creek, Michigan. We work with eight leading enterprise venture capital firms, Eighteen 94 Capital, Simon Burton and Gary Pilnick. Both Simon and Gary, who manage funds, are full-time executives of Kellogg. I visit the head office and meet with the investment committee and leaders of several business departments. Kellogg recently adopted the open floorplan in the executive department and intends to introduce this innovative architectural approach to all employees of the head office. As part of the refurbishment, all of the CEO abandoned the private office in exchange for a desk like a barn. The goal is to promote more open communication and accessibility between executive teams.

Dr. John Harvey and Dr. Wilkees Kellogg established a health food company Battle Creek Sanitarium health food company in 1898. The company manufactures food for existing patients and former patients for Dr. J. H. Kellogg's Battle Creek Sanitarium. The company was later called Battle Creek Sanita Riser Food Company in 1901. During this time, the company manufactures and sells health foods such as cornflakes, granola and caramel grain coffee. The company merged with Sanitas Nut Foods (founded by Dr. JH Kellogg in 1899), became Kellogg Foods in July 1908, sold nut butter and meat substitute goods, after which all its products are sold I started selling it. I named it "Kellogg". At this time, Dr. H. Kellogg owns 2 out of 15,000 shares. In 1921, it changed its name to Battle Creek Foods.
