The Young IFFI Event 2026 – Food in Mind is a one-day inspirational event designed for young professionals and final-year students who want to grow their impact in the food ingredients industry. Organised by Young IFFI, the event brings together personal development and industry insight in a highly interactive format.
The day starts with a powerful keynote on personal development, focusing on three essential capabilities for future leaders: resilience, influence and leadership. These themes are further explored in interactive breakout sessions that encourage reflection, dialogue and practical skill-building.
In the afternoon, participants gain exclusive insights from a CEO of a food company, who shares personal experiences on career development, decision-making and growth opportunities for young talent. The programme continues with breakout sessions focused on the Food in Mind theme from an industry perspective, covering Markets, Innovation and Operations.
Young IFFI provides a dynamic platform for emerging professionals to connect, learn and explore how they can help shape the future of food.
