This event brings together over 30 food innovation and technology speakers, eager to share their knowledge, experience and predictions. Our speakers are carefully handpicked based on their experience and contributions to the industry to date. Real life case studies from the biggest and most profitable companies will allow you to learn from their successes. You will leave the summit with a future proof strategy for growth that will see you ride through the turbulent times ahead!
Speakers include:
As our most important indigenous industry, the food and beverage industry is of critical strategic importance to Ireland. The country has a large cohort of global food and beverage companies developing and manufacturing innovative new products for International markets.
In order to both survive and thrive, food companies need to understand the global megatrends that are driving consumer choices and develop innovative new products to meet these future market demands. The most successful companies have learned to leverage the expertise and innovation available in academia to support this process.
A case study will focus on a new model for industry and academia to collaborate to add value and develop innovative new solutions to promote new business and market opportunities.
