Chewonthis!
Summary
We’re bringing the people who shape tomorrow’s food - the makers, the tasters, the buyers, and the decision-makers into one room (and one kitchen). From food and biotech innovators to horeca, chefs, policymakers, startups and retailers: this is where the future gets chewed over (with actual food).
Taste it. Test it. Challenge it. And help shape what makes it to menus and shelves next.
What to expect
A tasting‑led, half‑day designed for people who prefer real dishes over PowerPoints.
You will sample the next generation of hybrid and innovative foods, explore what works (and what doesn’t) where science meets the plate, join curated discussions with complementary expertise, and co‑create pathways that turn ideas into adoption.
Pre-register your interest
