The summits grow each year by bringing the most important executives in food industry organizations. Attendees have the opportunity to gain actionable insights, identify new growth opportunities, and develop a blueprint for increased compliance.

And with the added advantage of technology, you’ll do so at a number of small working groups, industry workshops, peer-led breakouts, roundtables and much more! You’ll come as an individual attendee – but you’ll leave as part of the Food Safety, Quality Assurance & Regulatory Summit community!
