We are closely monitoring the impact of recent travel and communication restrictions affecting the FDA, CDC, AFDO, and other government agencies.

Despite these limitations, the Food Safety Summit will proceed as planned. Should these restrictions remain in place, we are committed to minimizing disruptions by securing industry experts to step in for absent regulators. Any necessary updates to the speaker lineup will be promptly reflected in the online agenda.

Our goal is to ensure a robust and insightful program, maintaining a strong focus on collaboration, leadership, and the advancement of food safety.
