AIFST 2015 conference to be biggest yet


Monday, 13 April, 2015

This year’s 48th Annual AIFST Convention will be bigger than ever - two conferences in the one place - as it will be joined by the Australian Food Microbiology Conference at Sydney’s Luna Park.

The three-day double conference to be held from 11-13 August is expected to be the year’s biggest food industry event in the Asia-Pacific.

With the theme ‘Food for All’, keynote speakers, workshops and roundtable discussions will focus on the big ideas and latest thinking around Australia’s role in catering for global food supplies.

Linda Harris from the University of California’s Department of Food Science and Technology is confirmed as a keynote speaker, a specialist in food safety microbiology who will look into global food safety and provide insight into how to avoid disease outbreaks.

Also for the first time, the AIFST convention will be holding a Food Entrepreneur Business Essentials workshop, a one-day navigation through the essentials of developing a sustainable food business, hosted by successful food practitioners. The workshop will be held under the Luna Park Big Top Foyer 2 from 8.50 am on 12 August for registered participants.
