Food Supply Chain Open Innovation Workshop

The Welsh Government invites you to register for an open innovation workshop to explore challenges and opportunities in our food supply chains as we journey towards a more sustainable net zero future.

Hear from industry leaders such as Marks and Spencer about their Plan a: Our Planet initiative, with the aim to be net zero across their entire value supply chain by 2040.

The event will bring together a range of organisations operating within food supply chains, together with organisations who are developing and deploying technology and innovation to meet the needs of the sector. Meeting net zero goals requires a collaborative approach with a range of organisations working together to instigate change.

Welsh Government will also provide an overview of the support available.

Who should attend

• Food producers & manufacturers

Challenge themes

• Low carbon / net zero poultry

All industry sectors are striving to reduce their carbon footprint on their journey towards net zero. The Welsh Government encourages and promotes sustainable food production with a vision for a net zero future and thriving agri-tech, food and rural economy.
