Transform Food & Agriculture 2024
Event description
Transform Food will gather visionary leaders from across the value chain to shape a unified vision for the future of food—where alternative proteins not only stand out as a key solution for a more sustainable, resilient food system but also complement the work of farmers and regenerative agriculture. Let’s drive this transformation together. GFI’s Director of Corporate Engagement, Tessa Hale, will be speaking on a panel titled “Sustainable Food Systems: Innovative Approaches to Ensure Access for All Consumers.” Hope to see you there!
