“This year’s program brings together a host of subject matter experts that provide a unique perspective on these important topics. From university professors to cutting edge food industry entrepreneurs and suppliers to the industry, our speakers are prepared to discuss some of today’s biggest issues and help food and beverage processors better understand these challenges, their potential solutions and what we can expect in the near future,” said David Seckman, president and CEO of the Food Processing Suppliers Association (FPSA).
