About the event

This webinar will present key insights from the proceedings on plant-based protein in infant nutrition, recently published in Frontiers in Nutrition. With growing interest in plant-based diets, questions remain regarding their suitability during infancy.

The webinar will provide an overview of the cross-disciplinary expert group's discussion, including key nutritional considerations, current evidence, and identified research gaps.

This activity is supported by the Early Nutrition and Long-Term Health (ENLH) Task Force.

Agenda

The webinar will feature a presentation by the Expert Group chair, Kasper Hettinga (Wageningen University), followed by a live Q&A session, offering participants the opportunity to engage directly with experts and discuss implications for research and practice.

About the event

Organised by ILSI Europe within the Horizon Europe TITAN project, this one-day collaborative workshop explores how digital transformation can strengthen transparency, trust, and performance across European agri-food supply chains.

The event brings together policymakers, industry representatives, researchers, and innovators to bridge European policy ambitions with practical business implementation, creating a space for open dialogue between regulation, science, and market realities.

A key focus of the workshop is how agri-food companies can leverage digital tools to respond to evolving organisational, regulatory, and data-driven demands. As the sector moves from the Farm to Fork vision toward emerging policy frameworks such as the Omnibus Package, the workshop aims to ensure that future transparency requirements remain both ambitious and operational.

Through collaborative discussions, the event seeks to inform future EU policy development with approaches grounded in real industry experience, while identifying practical digital solutions and governance strategies that enable SMEs and start-ups to remain competitive and resilient. At the same time, the workshop will foster stronger alignment between regulatory frameworks and business needs, contributing to a more effective transformation of European food systems.

Building on insights generated during the four-year Horizon Europe TITAN project, the workshop draws on real-world evidence collected across the agri-food value chain.

Participants will engage with emerging findings, contribute to refining policy and management recommendations, and help shape a practical roadmap toward a more transparent, integrated, and competitive European agri-food system.

The ILSI Europe Symposium is a gathering of experts from around the world who meet to shed light on the current and future challenges in food safety, nutrition, and sustainability. It is a unique opportunity for scientists from academia, industry and public sector to take part in the debate around those topics and create connections.

This year's event will showcase the latest research from ILSI Europe's Task Forces, covering areas from healthy nutrition across the lifespan, to gut microbiome health, food allergens and food contaminants management, the next generation of risk assessment methods, and much more.

In celebration of ILSI Europe's 40th anniversary, we'll cap off the event with a gala dinner and party, making it a truly memorable occasion for networking and collaboration.
