Connected Food Safety: From Science to Solutions in the Meat Industry

The Meat Industry Food Safety Conference brings together food safety leaders and technical experts to strengthen programs through shared learning, candid discussion, and practical application. This year's agenda is built around a simple goal: connect the people, tools, and science needed to reduce risk in real operations.

Bridge the Gap Between Science & Operations

  • Leadership Alignment: Build a culture of accountability and ownership across the organization
  • Live Regulatory Updates: Director discussion on the latest policies affecting your operations
  • Root Cause Analysis: Real-world investigations that connect data to training and prevention
  • Salmonella Research: Insights into the latest plant-level prevention and control methods
  • Metagenomics: Advanced applications for both raw and RTE environments
  • Practical AI: Real-use cases for analytics in modern food safety teams
