Turning protein sustainability challenges into business opportunities for food, feed and pet food industries
A Protein Agenda 2020 is needed to accelerate a transition towards sustainable proteins consumption, based on ambitions and visions shared by companies in the various existing protein food, animal feed and pet food chains. A timeline which goes beyond the regular 3-5 year corporate planning periods is needed.
In light of this, the 6th Protein Summit 2013, which starts tomorrow in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, will address the current food market with a focus on proteins. With a combination of plenary sessions, specific sessions and panel discussions, the summit represents a unique platform for the world's decision makers, stakeholders and business leaders.
"This summit offers a unique opportunity to bring together the private pet food, food and feed sectors, ingredient, technology, government and scientists on to work on a Protein Agenda 2020 and 2050," said Peter Watts, director market innovation at PulseCanada. Watts will be detailing how innovations in pulse technologies can support the growing global demand of protein supply.
