Hi [Supervisor’s Name],

I’d like to request approval to attend Food Safety Summit, taking place May 12-15, 2025, in Rosemont, IL. This conference brings together leading experts in food safety to share practical solutions, emerging trends, and regulatory insights.

Here are a few reasons I believe attending would benefit our team:

  • Practical solutions to current food safety challenges we’re facing.
  • Opportunities to learn directly from top experts and regulators.
  • Access to an Expo Hall full of solution providers that could address key needs.
  • Networking opportunities to connect with peers and partners for future collaboration.
I’m especially interested in attending sessions on [Insert specific topics related to your role], and I’d be happy to share what I learn with the team afterward.

I also found that group discounts are available if others on the team would like to attend as well. There are also sessions that will available in their Live Streaming program that gives attendees that cannot make it to the event the opportunity to view presentations and download valuable content.

Thank you for considering this request! Please let me know if you’d like more information.

Best,

[Your Full Name]
