“With diversity, equality and inclusion as its core value, this year’s event puts empowering women in the fields of F&B, packaging and water management at the forefront.

The world is ever-changing, and the global food system is facing new challenges every day, from the long-term effects of the Covid-19 pandemic, to supply chain issues fueled by the Ukraine war, to the looming climate crisis. These challenges require new and innovative solutions, forcing food system stakeholders to look beyond profit and encourage purpose driven action.
