Join the Uni Food Day about development of healthy foods

02-Nov-2021 - Denmark

ttend this year’s Uni food Day on 9 November, where researchers and business people will join forces to try to find ways of developing healthy, safe and sustainable foods.

The world’s population is increasing and many consumers have adopted new eating habits. Being able to feed more people and accommodate new habits is pushing food producers to rethink both the types of products they make and how they are produced.

During this year’s Uni Food Day conference, researchers from the Technical University of Denmark, Aarhus University and the University of Copenhagen will enter a dialogue with representatives from different food businesses who are looking for sparring in relation to the development of healthier and more appetizing foods.
