Ferran Adrià joined the staff of elBulli in 1984 and rapidly progressed to become head chef. Famous for his pioneering culinary techniques, he has been applauded – and imitated - around the world, and won three Michelin stars for elBulli, along with many other accolades. With his elBullifoundation, opened in 2013, Adrià has created a center for research into gastronomic innovation whose mission is to study and catalogue the entire body of world culinary knowledge. Adrià is in New York to mark the publication of Coffee Sapiens (Phaidon), a multimedia project created by Lavazza and the elBullifoundation with the aim of promoting experimentation and innovation in the gastronomic field. This opera omnia on coffee is one of the first pillars of what will be the most complete database of the Occidental fine dining restaurant industry, Bullipedia. The Eugene M. Lang Entrepreneurship Center at Columbia Business School is thrilled to welcome Ferran Adrià to Columbia Business School.
