New Initiative
Food Safety Next
Food Safety Next is a curated forum for executive business leaders who are responsible for food safety across a corporate enterprise. It starts with enabling the relationships and exchange between the food safety management business function and the supply chain, operations, legal, finance, risk management, facilities and equipment, and other business functional leaders.
Food Safety Next is not a traditional conference. Our model connects three interconnected pillars — our annual Conference, our focused Roundtables, and ongoing Food Safety Next Business Networking — creating a continuous cycle of insight, connection, and action that can enhance enterprise food safety management and culture for the foodservice industry.
It enables a working environment where food safety management and culture are collaboratively developed — not merely presented — then translated into best practices for real-world implementation.
