About IFT FIRST
What is IFT FIRST?
IFT FIRST means Food Improved by Research, Science, and Technology. It is IFT’s response to the transformative nature of the global food system. IFT FIRST will bring together researchers, scientists, engineers and entrepreneurs from across the global food value chain to discuss scientific solutions in presentations and panels focused on transformative innovation.
Attendees will have the chance to interact with 1,000+ exhibitors showcasing the latest innovative solutions, technologies, new products and ingredients. Experiential innovation areas, scientific posters and intentional networking are key pieces of the IFT FIRST experience.
