This workshop will provide an opportunity to participate in an engaging workshop led by Ertharin Cousin, CEO and Founder of Food Systems for the Future. This interactive workshop will focus on the goals, progress, and future of the Protein PACT and continuous improvement needs for the animal agriculture industry. 

Day two of the Protein PACT Summit will highlight tools and successes Meat Institute members have implemented in their organizations and highlight the newest leaders in this industry through the Emerging Leaders Ceremony. 

As climate change accelerates, bringing more frequent and severe heatwaves, storms, and floods, food production and distribution networks face unprecedented challenges. At the same time, the food industry is a significant contributor to the climate and biodiversity crises, intensifying the very threats it must now navigate. A fundamental shift in the way we produce and consume food is essential, to secure a future that is both resilient and enduring.

Hear from experts about how climate, water, and nature are being addressed through strategic collaboration. 

The Women's Meat Industry Network (WMIN) is excited to honor our outstanding members who have made a significant impact on our industry. Please join us for a special luncheon where we will recognize this year's nominees and announce the winner of the 2024 Impactful WMIN of the Year Award.

This event is open to all Protein PACT attendees. We look forward to celebrating your achievements together!

This session will highlight the value of collective action to meet business goals and address shared priorities and challenges in the animal protein industry. 

Packaging is critical to delivering a safe, nutritious, and sustainable product. The role and impact of plastics and packaging continue to evolve as the world transitions to a food systems approach. Join this session for a rich conversation about the growing research needs, innovations, and legislative impacts that foster progress in this part of the industry.

Join experts in finance and investing to discuss the goals, strategies, and needs from this sector as they align with the animal agriculture industry. 

The closing session will empower you and your team to leave with a call to action on how to achieve your organization's continuous improvement goals and the Protein PACT goals.
