Introducing the Future of Nutrition Summit

The Future of Nutrition Summit came to Vitafoods Europe for the first time on 8 May 2023.

Taking place the day before the Vitafoods Europe exhibition opened, the one-day, in-person summit offered a snapshot of what the health and nutrition industry could look like in five or more years’ time.

The future-focused summit has been running successfully at Food ingredients Europe (Fi Europe), our specialised event for the food and beverage ingredient industry, and this year, the Vitafoods audience could enjoy the discussions focused on the future of personalised nutrition, the digitalisation of health, new technologies for health management, and emerging sustainable solutions across the value chain.

Independent thinkers from the nutraceutical industry and beyond shared their insights into how the health and nutrition landscape is evolving. In addition to cutting-edge content, the summit offered ample opportunities for peer-to-peer networking with C-suite experts from diverse disciplines and industries, including food science, innovation, sustainability, retail, nutrition, and public health as well as startups, scale-ups, and investors.

Speakers included Laura Katz, CEO and founder of the precision fermentation startup making breast milk proteins, Helaina; Agathe Danjou, director of evolution and disruption strategy at Danone; and Dr Evan Berk, global director of nutritional sciences and innovation at Unilever.
