Join us for lunch in Milwaukee on March 19, when we meet with 22 innovative food and beverage companies from Belgium, France, Spain, and the Netherlands.
FaB Wisconsin is their first stop in the U.S., moving on to meet with the Chicagoland Food and Beverage Network, and then
onto San Francisco for the
Future Food Tech 2019 Conference
. At this launch event of FaB's new International Forum, we're bringing global best practices and innovation sharing to Wisconsin.
The 22 companies coming represent five food cluster organizations (each similar to FaB) based in Spain (
Clusaga), the Netherlands (
Food Valley), France (
Valorial and
Vitagora), and Belgium (
Wagralim). Together, the clusters have formed the
New Frontier in Foods, combining forces to develop a joint internationalization strategy to enhance the competitiveness of their SMEs (small to medium sized enterprises) and to encourage the development of emerging industries in Europe and easier acc
ess to emerging markets.
Join us for a look into the world of international innovation. In addition to learning more about how these cluster organizations are serving their food and beverage companies, attendees will hear from and have the opportunity to meet the companies participating in New Frontiers in Food's Fast Forward Accelerator.
(One page summaries on each company and their products is forthcoming.)
