Asia Summit 2022

Food Leaders Roundtable: Building More Equitable and Sustainable Food Systems (Invite only)

-

There hasn't been a more opportune time to build and invest in more resilient, equitable, and sustainable food systems. From improving productive capacities to scaling up more sustainable products and processes, this moment requires greater coordinated and impactful solutions to more rapidly respond to growing challenges. Continuing our series of conversations over the last several years, we will ask participants what actions can strengthen food systems, including investment opportunities, digitalization, supporting local producers, and deepening cross-sector collaborations. By convening industry leaders, entrepreneurs, investors, and regulators, we aim to amplify the paradigm-changing ideas that would protect against continued environmental degradation and empower people to live healthier, more productive lives.
