Roundtable for food & health innovation

Food & Bio Cluster Denmark and Danish Life Science Cluster have come together to create the roundtable for food & health innovation. Join the second of two roundtables, and be part of shaping the network.

We’re excited to launch a dynamic roundtable designed for companies, researchers, and professionals who are passionate about the future of health and nutrition. At the heart of our focus is the powerful intersection between food and health, with a special emphasis on the microbiome, preventive health and 'functional medicine.'- areas that holds incredible potential for breakthroughs in well-being.

A collaboration between clusters
Food & Bio Cluster Denmark (FBCD) and Danish Life Science Cluster (DLSC) have come together to create the framework for this network, with the hope of fostering greater synergies between the members of both clusters. As a result, the network is open to all members from both FBCD and DLSC, providing a unique opportunity to collaborate, share knowledge, and innovate across sectors.

Who can join?
This network offers a platform for collaboration, where you can come together with other professionals to explore latest research, share insights, and innovate across disciplines. So, whether you’re pioneering in research or developing new solutions in the food or health sector, this is an opportunity to connect with thought leaders, discover emerging trends, and contribute to shaping the future of both industries.

Why join this roundtable?
You get the change to engage in meaningful dialogue, share insights, and co-create solutions. Regular workshops, roundtable discussions, and research showcases allow members to address both industry-specific challenges and cross-disciplinary questions, enabling a richer exploration of innovative approaches to health and nutrition.

This collaborative structure not only encourages a flow of ideas but also ensures that discoveries in research can be more readily applied to industry practices, benefiting both science and business. By working across interest areas and actor groups, the network creates a unique space where innovation thrives, synergies develop, and impactful advancements in food and health emerge.

Save the date and stay tuned as the program will be finalized shortly!

Looking forward to seeing you all for the second roundtable and to continue exploring the possibilities in this vital and rapidly evolving field!
