By UN estimates the global population will reach 9.7 billion by 2050 – an increase of 2 billion on today’s figures. Accommodating this rise in population, alongside government Net Zero targets, will place considerable demands on existing food systems, requiring significant innovation in agriculture, manufacturing and waste management. Furthermore, producers, manufacturers and retailers face increased demands from consumers around the sustainability and environmental performance of the food on their plate.

Part of the IBioIC Annual Conference Fringe, this event explores innovative responses to these challenges.
