As consumer demands continue to evolve, the conversation around a healthy diet has never been more relevant. This panel will explore how manufacturers can meet consumer demands through smarter formulation and reformulation, grounded in the latest ingredient innovation and nutritional science. Technical experts from a range of backgrounds will unpack the trends reshaping both raw materials and finished products. With the rapid growth of personalised nutrition, shifting dietary preferences, and the increasing influence of obesity medicines on eating behaviours, product development teams face new pressures to create foods that support healthier choices without compromising taste, texture or cost.
