CFI Integrated Trust System™ — ACTIVATE

CFI’s Trusted Voices
Network™ & Forum


Science without amplification goes unheard.

Influence without evidence erodes trust.

The Trusted Voices Network™ & Forum deliver both.

CFI connects credible, science-backed communicators with the audiences that need to hear them — at the right time.

Our Integrated Platforms

Three platforms, one coordinated voice

The Trusted Voices Network™ operates across three integrated platforms — each designed to reach consumers through credible, science-grounded engagement at a category level, never brand level.

Best Food Facts

Science-based content platform connecting consumers with objective, transparent and accurate information about food. Powered by 200+ university and credentialed experts, with 84K+ keywords ranking on page one and a 123K+ consumer email list.

Growing a Healthier America™

Influencer-led campaigns connecting science with culture. A coordinated, values-led response to fast-moving food narratives — deploying a mix of micro, mid and macro influencers who appeal to key consumer belief archetypes.

Trusted Voices Forum

An intimate, in-person convening for learning, creation, networking and capacity building. Designed to build long-term capability among credible influencers and shift the food system from fragmented responses to a coordinated trust platform.


CFI Influencer Power Score™

Matching the right voice to the right audience

CFI’s proprietary six-factor Influencer Power Score™ prioritizes trust and strategic alignment — not just audience size. Every influencer is scored and mapped to specific consumer belief archetypes, ensuring your message reaches the people most likely to receive it well.

  • Scoring is powered by CFI Trust Intelligence™ Insight Engines — the same belief-based model that drives the Predict phase of the Integrated Trust System.
  • Every voice is matched to the consumer belief archetype most likely to trust them, on the topic at hand.

Trusted Voices Forum™

Building long-term capacity for the food system

The Trusted Voices Forum is an in-person, intimate and collaborative gathering that delivers in-depth, interactive and fast-paced learning, engagement and relationship-building. It is designed to shift the food system from fragmented responses to a coordinated platform for building trust by identifying, connecting and supporting emotionally resonant, credible influencers who can compete with the growing influence of misinformation.

By identifying, connecting and supporting emotionally resonant, credible influencers, the Forum creates a network that can compete with the growing influence of misinformation shaping public perceptions of food and agriculture.

Talent identification & scoring

All influencers recruited will have a credential and track record of emotionally resonant, evidence-based engagement. Each receives a CFI Power Score based on six screening criteria and alignment by topic. Sponsors receive a full scouting report including content examples, scoring, audience by channel and cost ranges.

Forum format

Hosted over three days in an easily accessible destination city. Day 1: Opening night experience. Day 2: Insightful content, authentic dialogue, a behind-the-scenes immersion and networking. Day 3: Facilitated Q&A to ensure no questions are left on the table.
