Designing the Food System of the Future

How will we sustainably feed 10 billion people and how will investment and innovation help get us there?

Join Boston University’s School of Management (http://www.management.bu.edu), Feeding 10 Billion (http://www.feeding10billion.com), The Food Loft (http://www.thefoodloft.com), and Branchfood (http://www.branchfood.com/welcome) for an evening of lively discussion and a glimpse into the future of food and agriculture!

The evening is intended to inspire new collaborations and connections in the food and agriculture space. We’re bringing together entrepreneurs, investors, consumer experts and startup gurus to discuss the food system of the future. We'll hear multiple perspectives where opportunities exist to innovate, invest, and disrupt to create a better food system; one that not only feeds people, but also regenerates the environment and contributes to the health of individuals and communities.
