The Future of Food

The Future of Food: sustainable solutions to feed ten billion people by 2050. 

What does the Future of Food really look like? Synthetic meats? Bizarre protein sources or mass food production on a scale never seen before? How can we tackle the world’s climate emergency and help people eat healthy, nutritious diets at the same time?

Presented by Clean Growth UK, this virtual event on 25 February 2021 will bring together industry leaders, entrepreneurs and academics to share their insights into the future of food production.

Expect lively debate, a window into the future, and the chance to network with like-minded business leaders and changemakers.
