Biosolutions combine biology and technology, leveraging microorganisms through fermentation, precision fermentation and bio refinement to tackle climate and environmental problems and enhance food security. If all known biosolutions were scaled up to full production by 2030, we could reduce 8% of today's global Co2 emissions[1]. However, European legislation is to slow, and therefore Danish Industry supported by the Novo Nordisk Foundation has established the European Biosolutions Coalition.

Why is sustainability important to the financial sector? In this segment, Lene Lundgaard discuss the key sustainability legislation that is targeting the financial sector and being implemented these years. Legislative concepts such as the EU taxonomy, Green Asset Ratio, and the Corporate Social Responsibility Directive all affects the financial sector greatly, and directly and indirectly reflects their customers’ performance on sustainability. This will reshape the customer dialogue with their banks, as the financial institutions will need to get much closer to the business operations of their customers. But these insights are not just about risks – its also a way to a more transparent discussion about who is ahead in the game of sustainability.

Food waste is a pressing global issue, with approx. one-third of all produced food discarded annually. Utilizing sustainable biological solutions can transform food production, reduce waste, and promote a healthier ecosystem - without compromising key consumer benefits such as clean label, taste, texture, and affordability. Biosolutions is the answer to feed and fuel a growing world. Affordably and sustainably.

Danish Crown has been working ambitiously With sustainability targets for many years. In 2021 a strategy for climate emissions was published, with a focus on investing in new technology, sustainability and innovation to reduce the carbon footprint of meat and supply more sustainable food and products that meet consumer demand. In 2024, Danish Crown will be airing a new approach for water consumption. What have been the drivers behind the new approach, and how can a positive process with stakeholder involvement be laid out? Who are the main internal and external stakeholders, and how are they involved? What are the main differences between developing climate and water strategies? The Danish Crown Group produces a large variety of food products, ranging from fresh pork and beef cuts, over sausages, to ready to eat meals and soups. The underlying water consuming processes are therefore also very variable, and water saving targets must be set to be both ambitious and realistic. The speak will provide insights into the decision-making and roll-out processes of water approach in a large international company aimed at advancing the sustainability impact of a food company

The new CSRD and the emerging European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) requirements take sustainability reporting to a new level. The long-term goal is segregating companies between good and less good performers and ensure stakeholders get adequate information for decision making. Former reporting frameworks had a focus on business risks and opportunities, but the impacts are the center piece in the new directive. A number is only a number if you don’t know what lies behind. The devil is in the detail and validity depends on the processes creating the report as well as assumptions, methodology, criteria, and other parameters. The speakers will in the presentation touch upon what lies behind a trustworthy report and share insights and experience from the view of a certifying body.

The future is coming faster and hitting harder, and evolving consumer preferences are transforming the way we eat and interact with food. In this keynote, Henrik Good Hovgaard will show you some of the cool ways you can use trends to look ahead and design action today. It will be visual, entertaining, and provocative for some, and with some hands-on tips to use the future to your advantage. Henrik Good Hovgaard, Universal Futurist Read the exciting interview with Henrik Good Hovgaard What is your background, and what do you work with? My name is Henrik Good Hovgaard. I am a Futurist specializing in training companies to spot trends and design superfast future strategies, vision plans, and ideas. The result is that companies have their own “future department.” I have a background as a teacher and a master’s degree in digital design from Aarhus University. I have been working with futurism for the past 22 years, and I am now a partner in the company Universal Futurist. How does the future look for the food industry? Many trends impact the industry right now, and it will only become more exciting for those who have the right skills to use changes in society and technology to their advantage. Those who complain and use too much of their time and energy to fight against change will face great problems. The trends that the food industry is facing right now involve a lot of regulations about the transition towards a greener and more climate-friendly production, distribution, and consumption. The future will become even more regulated, but the good part is that there will be more A.I.-based systems and services to help the food industry navigate. The overarching trend for the future is called “From More to Better”, and this is what all working in the food industry need to understand and navigate by. All the trends in sustainable practices, plant-based and alternative proteins, personalized nutrition, healthy convenience, and regenerative agriculture, to name a few, are all going “from more to better”. What do consumers think about the green transition in the food industry and are they ready for it? Many people are ready for it, and many are already onboard, but for many, it's a matter of money and whether they can afford it. Attitudes toward the green transition can vary by region and culture. In some areas, Traditional practices and economic factors may influence the pace and nature of consumer acceptance of sustainable food products. One major influence will be the hard consequences of global warming that we will see and feel in the next 10-20 years. Consumers who experience extreme consequences themselves will want to participate in making choices that accelerate the green transition. How does the food industry look on the planet's terms? The food industry is responsible for a substantial portion of global CO2 emissions, accounting for approximately 25% to 34% of the total greenhouse gas emissions. So, from a planetary perspective, the food industry can make a huge impact on the health of our planet. If we can organize huge groups of consumers to change habits, we can make huge positive changes. If we change habits in one area, it can easily spill over to lots of other areas, such as energy, housing, transportation, etc. In my opinion, food is the first domino to kick-start planetary change. What are you looking forward to at the Global Dilemma Conference at FoodTech? I am looking forward to meeting a lot of interesting people and learning new insights. In my keynote, I will discuss new trends and new skills that will be essential to master.

4 years ago, Arla Foods Ingredients (AFI) started designing a new wastewater recycling system that we called technical water. We would like to share our journey of challenges and opportunities connected to technical water, as we have been through a steep learning curve to understand the technology and the operational risk factors of the equipment. The technical water project opened up to new possible applications (e.g. broader end-users), which we are working on right now. However, this successful journey was not without “bumps in the road”, and this gave us the opportunity to learn and optimize the technology to deal with unforeseen issues. Furthermore, we will talk about what’s next? And how does this help secure a sustainable growth for AFI?

The project EAT-pack will change the food sector with the development of the sustainable edible food films (EFF), revolutionizing the future food supply. The EFF will cover the whole food product tightly and become part of the dish when heated (zero-waste). The main ingredient, citrus fiber is sustainable and scalable, being a sidestream of a sidestream from the juice and pectin industry. Read the exciting interview with Susan Løvstad Holdt What is your background, and what do you work with? I am a biologist by training and have for many years worked with seaweed-composition, extraction methods, and applications. The idea for the edible food film came from seaweed hydrocolloids that are gelling at room temperature but becomes liquid at high temperature. The edible food film may not have any seaweed in the final recipe. What is the biggest challenge in the green transition of the food industry, in your opinion? For me, the biggest challenges are legislation, settled systems/value chains and customer behavior. Legislation is not ready for thinking out of the box. Even though all ingredients of the film are approved as food, putting the film into the pot, does not fit into the current legislation, and can therefore not be realized. It is difficult to change conventional systems, that are cheap and still legal, even though everyone knows we need more sustainable solutions. Customers need to be ready to change. The idea may be too radical. How does the food industry look on the planet's terms, in your opinion? Everybody knows we need to change… systems and habits. And it needs to be big changes to make an impact. With the edible food film, we hope to shake people a bit, and think very different about how things can be done differently. Incorporating new innovative solutions. Why not have zero waste in the food system, or at least part of it. We will start with making a sustainable edible food film, that you put in the pot, being part of the food, leaving no waste. The film will be made mainly form a side stream, so the solution is not competing with food, scalable and sustainable environmentally and economically. What are you looking forward to at the Global Dilemma Conference at FoodTech, and what do you hope participants will gain from attending? I hope to meet new people and also make a seed in peoples mind, about re-thinking the way we are doing things now, and I hope that can germinate so people are open for new solutions for a more sustainable future.
