New Event Series Launch: Monthly Conversations for Members 

We are kicking off 2026 by launching Monthly Conversations, a new member-exclusive event series shaped directly by input from our community. The event series are developed in response to member feedback, the Monthly Conversations reflect our broader mission to accelerate innovation, enable collaboration, and support the transition towards a more sustainable and resilient food system. 

The series consists of recurring breakfast seminars, held on the first Tuesday of every month, each time addressing a topic that matters to companies operating across the food value chain. Each session combines expert insights, practical examples, and peer exchange, turning shared knowledge into real-world impact. 

First event: Smart Packaging & Sustainability 

The series begins with a breakfast seminar together with our parter, Kolossal, exploring how smart packaging design can contribute to sustainability, strengthen shelf impact, and build consumer trust. Participants will gain practical insights and real-world examples while connecting with peers over breakfast. 

Looking ahead this spring 

During the spring, the Monthly Conversations will also explore topics such as public procurement and market access, the role of haptics in the sustainable transition, commercial collaboration with resellers, and sustainability from both a strategic and operational perspective.

The Monthly Conversations series is exclusive to members of Foodtech Innovation Network. 

If you would like to take part in this, and other knowledge-sharing activities, you can read more about the membership here.
