New Frontiers in Food & Drink – a cutting edge conference to discuss the food industry of tomorrow – is to take place this summer.

The event, which is organised by British Baker, together with sister titles The Grocer, Food Manufacture and Meat Trades Journal, takes place on 26 June in London and features a keynote talk by Dr Morgaine Gaye, a food futurologist.

Gaye will identity areas of innovation that could most benefit food and drink businesses, as they cater for increasingly discerning and health-conscious consumers, against a background of calls for more sustainably and ethically-responsible production.

Other speakers include Charles Spence, Professor of Experimental Psychology, University of Oxford, and Professor Arnold van Huis, Tropical Entomologist, Laboratory of Entomology at Wageningen University.

The event also features a unique immersive programme of speaker presentations, round-table discussions, breakout sessions and taste-testing.
