• Identifying key consumer trends and adapting to those

The past 18 months has witnessed one of the most challenging periods in the food industry’s history - a period which has changed the game forever. Life may be returning back to normal, but the lessons learned and processes adopted as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic mean that the food industry cannot and will not retreat back to where it was in late-2019.

The end of 2021 presents an excellent opportunity to look forward. There is of course a need to examine the harsh lessons taught to the industry recently, but more important is the need to peer over the horizon and see what is coming up in the distance.

Speakers from some of the world’s biggest food and beverage manufacturers, authoritative bodies and foremost academics will come together to ask: what does the future look like for the food industry? From feeding an extra two billion people inside 20 years to grappling with the rapidly changing climate, there are plenty of challenges ahead - but no other industry possesses the expertise, creativity, and resilience to deal with it better than the food industry.

Join us on December 14 as we gaze into our collective crystal ball during an unmissable online event - live for one day only. From cannabis regulation and changing beverage trends to supply chain traceability and sesame seeds, you will want in on this.
