Topic
Soon we all will be enjoying our Christmas dinner, but how much do we know about the composition of the food we eat and beverages we drink? This meeting will discuss how photonics technologies can help manufacturing, quality control, testing of new formulations and even growth of our future treats. The whole supply chain of photonics technologies will come together to discuss the current status and how photonics can contribute to the future of the food industry.
Spirit of the meetings
During these online technology meetings, we are looking for the challenges the industry is facing and bringing together the entire supply chain to address these challenges. Bringing together end-users with component suppliers and system integrators that will answer the EPIC question “What can you do for them and what can they do for you” creates the perfect foundation to establish new business relationships and find ways for new collaborations and partnerships.
