Transforming Food Systems – Insights and Roadmap for 2026
December 11th, 10:30 AM CHICAGO | 5:30 PM BERLIN | 4:30 PM LONDON
Business models are evolving, political pressure is intensifying, and global food security hangs in the balance. The year 2025 has marked a turning point for the world’s food systems, with unprecedented shifts driven by climate change, technological innovation, and shifting consumer expectations.
As we look toward 2026, the question is not only what has changed, but how we can leverage these lessons to design more resilient, sustainable, and equitable food systems. Industry leaders and innovators will share their perspectives on navigating today’s complex challenges, ranging from supply chain disruptions and rising production costs to sustainability demands and regulatory transformations. They will explore how emerging technologies, data-driven insights, or circular economy principles are reshaping business strategies and redefining what success looks like in the food sector. Together, we will identify the most relevant developments of 2025 and try to translate them into actionable strategies for the coming year. The ultimate goal: to co-create a “Roadmap 2026”, a vision for a thriving, more plant-based, and future-ready global food ecosystem.
