Senior management of both the hosting organizations and the IFFI member companies engage and address technology/market outlook and ways to improve business from both sides. But always focusing on the innovation potential in markets, operations and supply chains. Highlighting this time the impact of artificial intelligence in food. And more specific, how does artificial intelligence contribute to market intelligence, innovation processes and operational excellence? What is the current status of using artificial intelligence today and what can we expect in the (very) near future? How does it affect our way of doing business today and tomorrow?
