As we step into this week's London fair #FutureFoodTech, I'm eager to represent CarbonCloud and ignite discussions that challenge the norm. It's my first time exhibiting, and I believe it's time to push the envelope. Here's the burning question I'll be asking: Are we content with being associated with sustainability commitments, or are we ready to roll up our sleeves and measure our true impact? Early Adopters know it's not about commitments; it's about cold, hard numbers. It's about proving, not just promising. They're embracing change, collaborating with suppliers in new ways, and driving sustainability beyond words and into strategic data driven insights. On the flip side, some are still in the Waiting Game, relying on associations and regulations. But the world is evolving, and consumers are demanding more than just green labels- I know I am after learning what science is disproving about some of em today... All I'm saying is- let's not wait for others to lead; let's be the leaders. Let's understand our numbers, let's measure where we can improve, and let's prove it to our discerning customers who seek the truth, not just empty pledges. P.S. Get ahead in sustainability with David Bryngelsson's take at the panel @ 10.45 CET this Thursday. Exciting times indeed!

What a busy few weeks it's been for TraceGains across the UK. First stop was The Food & Drinks Trends and Innovation Conference, where we showcased how brands are accelerating new product development in an increasingly complex world with digital tools and networked data. Next, The Proactive Food Safety Conference, discussing the new era of transparency and building better supplier networks with 360-performance data. We sponsored The Food Manufacture Business Leaders Forum in London, meeting industry leaders to discuss strategies to overcome the challenges faced by the world's largest supply chain. In between, we hosted our first UK TraceGains Get-Together, a huge success that brought together leaders from global brands and discussing NPD and its challenges, best practices, digitalisation, and all things ESG. It doesn't stop there either, this week, we're off to Madrid for the Food Sure Summit and Food Innovate Summit conferences, delivering keynotes, interactive roundtables, and on-site demos covering compliance, NPD, and ESG solutions that are transforming the industry. Thank you to all the brands that joined us and we look forward to meeting more across Europe over the coming weeks. Let's continue to revolutionise the industry together. #foodsafety #foodinnovation #foodandbeverage #npd #esg

Great morning out in Teagasc Ashtown. I learned that the technology centre is the biggest ‘meat research project’ anywhere in the world. The depth of the work being done was clear, from sustainable packaging, meat eating quality, methane reductions through animal breeding, nutritional importance of meat, factories of the future. I stressed to the researchers the importance of taking a solutions focused outlook, keeping the needs of industry firmly in mind. Good to catch up with members as always. #beef #lamb #irish #ruralcommunities #economicimpact

Be part of the transformation! This year’s theme is Collaboration + Innovation: How Can Food Science and Technology Transform the Food System?  

Look to Denmark for policy ideas on how to curb the #climate impact of #food and #agriculture. Just this week, Denmark succeeded in negotiating a tax on emissions from farmers. But for the past months, it's been rolling out the world’s first government-led action plan for plant-based foods. The strategy involves creative solutions to make animal-free meals more enticing, tastier and accessible. This weekend, dozens of food guides will be deployed at a summer music festival to mingle with concertgoers and stage engaging plant-based cook-ups. A hospitality college in Copenhagen is developing a vegetarian chef degree, while business conferences are trying to nudge attendees toward veggie options. These are just some of the first 36 ideas getting a boost from a $100 million Plant Fund that accompanies the plan. More grants will soon be handed out after a second funding round was flooded with applications. Meat and dairy are part of the Danish food culture, it's also a large exporter of these products. So the plan makes it even more spectacular in the eyes of the international audience, says Rune-Christoffer Dragsdahl. "It sends a signal to countries that are similarly deeply rooted in the meat tradition that it’s possible to create dialogue and start initiatives for change,” he says.
