Honoured to speak at the @fevia_be Jaarvergadering on the competitiveness of Europe’s food and drink industry.
Three “co’s” are needed to boost the 🇪🇺 agri-food sector’s resilience, sustainability and prosperity:
🟢 Co-investment
🟢 Co-innovation
🟢 Co-operation

“All of us rely on a healthy ocean ecosystem” - Lisa Boulton
And as a business @Purina also relies on our oceans for fish-based pet foods.
That’s why the company is restoring marine ecosystems and using innovative seaweed bio-stimulants to filter pollutants

“We are working with partners to understand what it takes to achieve the marine ecosystem restoration at scale in a project that is nature and biodiversity driven.” - Lisa Boulton at @FoodDrinkEU's #FoodFuture Ideas Fest.
Why do we process? For safe, digestible, healthy, sustainable & tasty food & drinks. Considering processing is irrelevant for nutrition. We all need to work together to avoid confusion around UPF & ensure balanced diets are backed by science. #FoodFuture, Prof De Meulenaer @ugent – at Brussels, Belgium
Key take-away from Christian Høeg Andersen, Danish farmer, @COPACOGECA VP, is that an optimal diet should contain a balance of both plants and animal-based products. A balance will ensure the nutrition for consumers & at the same time be mindful of our planet #FoodFuture – at Brussels, Belgium

Today, we’re excited to be at @FoodDrinkEU's #FoodFuture Ideas Fest with partners and colleagues from the 🇪🇺 food industry. Ready for an afternoon of insightful discussions about the future of our food and drink industry. Follow us for highlights! #FoodDrinkEurope
The future is dairy! 🧀 🥛 Or is it? When reducing animal-based foods in your diet, you need to ensure your micronutrient intake remains adequate, explains
Dr Peters. He explains how to create balance to have an optimised diet - dairy can provide essential benefits #FoodFuture
Food, drinks & rock 'n roll! How to navigate feeding an entire festival of hungry consumers, while offering a variety of tasty, sustainable, and healthy options? Koen Scholiers takes us through how this is tackled at the Rock Werchter Festival in Belgium

The biggest challenge is to ensure all data is linked to the information on pack - what a wonderful case study by Pete Matthews from @KelloggCompany on inclusive packaging and labelling at @FoodDrinkEU #IdeasFest #consumerinformation #FoodFuture #packagingsolutions #inclusion
Sandra Eimane, Latvian dairy farmer, shares her experiences with participants at @FoodDrinkEU's #FoodFuture #IdeasFest. Generational renewal is essential to guarantee the future of farming in the EU to ensure a resilient food system for future generations #SustainableFoodEU
Round 2 of thought-provoking speeches on the future of food kicks off at @FoodDrinkEU #IdeasFest this afternoon. Join us at the farmers stage, consumers stage, or the food & drinks makers stage! We also have some innovative companies presenting new technologies #FoodFuture
Ben Ebbrel @sortedfood highlights the power of listening to an online audience to drive positive change for a healthy and sustainable #FoodFuture #SustainableFoodEU #food #IdeasFest
We need more young farmers to take on the challenge to produce food for European consumers, says Tiago Mateus - a young cherry farmer from Portugal 🇵🇹 🍒
Family farming in Europe should be supported by the EU as its the corner stone of our food systems #FoodFuture #IdeasFest
Prof Fogliano @WUR explaining why the term ultra-processed food term is unhelpful and not based on solid scientific evidence. Let's come back to the basics and look at the nutritional content rather than the level of processing. #FoodFuture #nutritionscience #IdeasFest

Additives hold our food systems together.
They are safe.
They have essential functions.
They make our food safer, tastier, more affordable, convenient, and sustainable.
Maryse Hervé from EU Specialty Food Ingredients tells us all about these little ingredients #FoodFuture

Michiel Van Meervenne from KRIKET introduces the latest in food innovation: insect protein bars 🍫
High in protein, sustainable and delicious!
And try for yourself at KRIKET’s innovation stall - all happening now at the #FoodFuture Ideas Fest ⬇️
Faustine Bas-Defossez @Green_Europe takes us through a green vision for profitable farming. It needs to contribute to sustainable, healthy, food systems, while at the same time stimulate innovation and ensure fairness for agricultural producers. Transparency is key. #FoodFuture
A vivid discussion with Prof Fogliano @WUR on 'ultra-food confusion'. Thanks for untangling the web of correlations when it comes to science on UPF. Fogliano calls for using nutrition science & focus on nutrient content to live healthy & sustainable diets & lifestyles #FoodFuture
Prof Fogliano @WUR explaining why ultra-processed food term is unhelpful and creates confusion. The NOVA classification is not based on solid scientific evidence. He calls to go back to basics and focus on the nutrient content rather than the level of processing. #FoodFuture
