About Plant-Powered Perspectives 2023
Plant-Powered Perspectives 2023 is here: the upcoming edition of our annual conference that provides a platform for discussing the most significant advancements in the food and beverage industry, in relation to the plant-based megatrend. We meet at an interesting moment. While some express pessimism about the development of the plant-based movement, major food manufacturers are actively prioritizing the expansion of their plant-based product portfolios.
Moreover, technological advancements enable us to envision bold possibilities for the transformation of the food system. It is gradually unfolding, which is why this year we will explore the systemic barriers encountered by food producers and the topic of mass nutrition. Where do we stand on the path towards a plant-based future? On October 19th, we invite you to join us in Warsaw, where we will address this question for the 6th time.
