Facing a New Reality: AI - The Good, The Bad, The Ugly

AI is set to transform the food manufacturing industry, bringing both significant opportunities and challenges. As AI reshapes food manufacturing, critical questions emerge: How can organizations leverage these tools responsibly to drive a much-needed technological revolution? What trends will define the next five to ten years in innovation and efficiency? What risks must be managed to ensure ethical and effective AI adoption in food production and supply chains?

In this Keynote, Dr. Mark van Rijmenam will explore how AI is revolutionizing food processing, enhancing automation and enabling the use of digital twins to optimize production. He will also address potential risks, such as data privacy concerns and the ethical use of AI in a sector that is ripe for innovation yet traditionally slow to adopt new technologies.
