Meet the Innovators:
Technology Showcase
A highlight of the Future Food-Tech program, early-to-mid stage food-tech companies pitch
their solutions to our audience of global food businesses, technology integrators and VC investors. Each
company has seven minutes to present the highlights of its technology and business model before taking
questions from the panel of investors and the audience.
The TechHub
This focused meeting area showcases the most exciting food-tech start-ups on the market.
Investors and potential partners can engage with selected early-stage companies, discover new
and disruptive solutions, and meet some of the most innovative entrepreneurs at the summit.
I found the event very effective to meet with companies that are at an early
stage but who need support in trying to move their business to the next phase.
It was also a great environment to discuss with other major food and
beverage companies regarding their strategy in relation to how they
engage with this community and how best to support them.
