Young IFFI Event | Food in Mind
From Gut–Brain Science to Personal Performance
This year, the Young IFFI Event takes place at the inspiring KNVB Campus in Zeist, a place where health, movement, teamwork and continuous improvement are at the core.
The theme of the day: Food in Mind.
Part 1: The Gut–Brain Axis
We start with science.
How do the gut and brain communicate? What role do stress, nutrition and the microbiome play in mental performance? And what does this mean for innovation in the ingredients industry?
Expect evidence-based insights, practical translation, and interactive sessions where you’ll explore how gut–brain science connects to your professional world.
Part 2: Personal Development in Practice
In the afternoon, we turn the lens inward.
How do you perform under pressure? How do you manage energy, focus and decision-making in demanding environments? And how can you strengthen your own sustainable performance?
Through interactive and hands-on formats, we’ll connect biological insight to personal effectiveness, because understanding the system only matters if you can apply it.
Why this setting?
At the KNVB Campus, home of Dutch elite football, the focus is on becoming better every day. The perfect environment to explore how nutrition, mindset and performance come together.
Join fellow young professionals for a day of learning, connection and inspiration and discover how Food in Mind shapes both innovation and personal growth.
