Join Us In-Person for the Food Industry’s Most Comprehensive Legal and Regulatory Conference ACI’s 6th Annual Advanced Summit on Food Law – Regulation, Compliance, and Litigation is returning to Chicago this July! ACI looks forward to welcoming you back in-person to the Windy City this summer for our renowned food law conference. As the pandemic turns into an endemic, you need to revise your playbook to tackle the food industry’s latest evolution along with all its new legal and regulatory challenges. Attend this year’s program to prepare for the future by examining current controversies, benchmarking existing strategies, and analyzing critical areas for innovation. Now more than ever, we need to capitalize on lessons learned during the pandemic about supply chains shortages, as well as be more conscious about environmental concerns, including green claims and ESG responsibilities. We also need to be in the know about the next chapter for plantbased products and how developments in that arena may rewrite the handbook on traditional food products. In terms of public outreach, while the industry continues to embrace the use of social media and influencers to support and promote its products, it must also be cautious in view of FTC guidance and consumer protection concerns. Finally, as technology evolves, the food industry must also learn how to harness the power of the Metaverse and its many assets, including NFTs. For all these reasons and more, you need to attend this year’s event. Come and join us, to learn from and network with key legal, regulatory, and compliance stakeholders at our highly anticipated food law reunion of the year.

Session Highlights for 2022 will Focus on: CHEVRON-DOUBLE-RIGHT Food Supply Chain Disruptions as a Result of the COVID-19 Pandemic CHEVRON-DOUBLE-RIGHT Developments in Plant-Based “Meats” And “Milks” CHEVRON-DOUBLE-RIGHT The Impact of Influencers, Social Media, User Generated Content, and the Metaverse On Food Advertising CHEVRON-DOUBLE-RIGHT Best Practices for Substantiating Green Claims CHEVRON-DOUBLE-RIGHT Class-Actions Claims in 2022 CHEVRON-DOUBLE-RIGHT Status Check on CBD And Cannabis in Food Products
