�The Most Important Food Event of the Year returns with unparalleled access and beyond-the-headlines insights into key content and players across the worlds largest industry: food.
The Foods Future Summit is uniquely positioned to drive the regions discourse on foods future, a topic that will only continue to grow in urgency and importance as our food systems come under increasing demographic and environmental strain. Global capital flows certainly recognize and reflect the significance of this space. In 2018 alone, Venture Capitalists poured some US$1.3 billion into food tech start-ups, while the global food and agriculture industry is already estimated to be worth at least US$8 trillion and counting. The Asia-Pacific region occupies a central role in this equation, housing more than half of the worlds population and estimated to become the worlds biggest consumer of F&B by 2030.
The Summits programme and speakers are carefully curated each year to provide timely and crucial insight and foresight to this rapidly evolving space, ensuring that attendees acquire relevant content and networks ahead of and beyond the headlines. Key topics and trends that will be covered this year include: investment trends in the food space; how our food is being improved and future-proofed from alternative proteins (and not just the plant-based and lab-grown varieties) to other staples such as water and rice; how data, AI and other innovations are disrupting dining experiences and diets; how institutions can feasibly move beyond tokenism in the push for more sustainable dining practices; blockchain technologies securing our food chain; and changing profiles of conscious consumers.
Speakers and Panelists across both days include: Rickard Öste, one of the original inventors of Oatly, Dan Pathomvanich, the Chinese pea protein meat company Zhen Rou, Founder and CEO Lu Zhongxuan, the founder of Zhen Rou, who also founded Fu Chou Zhe, and is one of the first to create a protein bar brand in Chian, CEO of NR Instant Produce, a pioneering food manufacturer funding other innovative food companies through initiatives such as Foodshot Global; Carrie Chan, founder of HKs first cell-cultured protein company Avant Meats; Adrien Desbaillets, MD of one of Asias pioneering healthy food brands SaladStop!; Leo Chiu, CTO of Venture Capital firm Click Ventures, and local industry leaders and stalwarts like CEO of Green Monday David Yeung, and Chefs Shane Osborn, David Lai and Neil Tomes, Manuel Gonzalez, founder of Rabobanks FoodBytes! and TERRA accelerator before launching his own food tech fund and investment platform Global RIFF; Dr. Celine Schiff-Deb of Calysta, an innovative bio-technology company turning natural gas into protein; Alec Lee of Endless West, creator of the worlds first molecular whiskey.
