Event description

Right now, most Americans get the majority of their protein from conventional animal agriculture. But that’s changing. In 2024, more than 60% of U.S. households purchased plant-based meat, dairy, or eggs. These foods are no longer niche, they’re part of a growing global shift toward more sustainable, secure, and just ways of producing protein. But what does this shift mean for public health? For climate goals? For the future of farming?

Join GFI’s Shayna Fertig, Senior Advisor to the President, and trailblazers from across the alternative protein ecosystem for a lively discussion on what comes next and how smarter food choices today can unlock big wins for our planet, our health, and our economy.

Learn more from:

  • T.K. Pillan, Senior Advisor, Beyond Meat
  • Sara Berger, Global CEO, Sproud

Alternative proteins are more than a trend. They’re a toolkit for building a better food future. Come learn how!
