The 3rd NIZO Plant Protein Functionality Conference will be held at Omnisport Apeldoorn, Apeldoorn, The Netherlands from 22-25 October 2024.
With the environmental targets set for the coming years and with the increasing world population, we must evolve the way we produce and consume food. NIZO and Elsevier are committed to supporting research for better food and health, tackling the challenge of developing plant-based protein ingredients and foods to feed the world in a more sustainable way. Because consumers do not compromise on taste when looking for vegetarian or vegan products, this is a challenging task ahead.
The 3rd NIZO Plant Protein Functionality Conference will combine the most recent scientific developments in plant protein functionality. It will provide a unique opportunity for experts from academia and the food and ingredients industry world-wide to interact and apply their knowledge and latest research findings to the design and manufacture of new and improved foods and plant protein ingredients.
The conference will focus on plant-based proteins across different biological origins, bringing together researchers from the fields of plant protein technology, (bio)chemistry, processing, physics, product formulation, sensory, health and nutritional sciences to share and learn with peers from around the globe.

Set in the heart of the Somerset countryside, we’re surrounded by some of the country’s very best food and drink, so we feel ideally placed to stage a big celebration of our farmers, producers, chefs and retailers. We now have the perfect home for the British Cheese Awards too, and can’t wait to share the awe-inspiring sight of the judging arena with a new food loving crowd. We hope to fly the flag for our region and get people thinking, but first and foremost the festival will be a place to share in the joy of outstanding food and drink.”

DIN Conf 2024
2024-05-09 - 2024-05-10
This year’s Dairy Industry Newsletter conference will be held again in London on May 9 and 10. Once again there is a stellar line-up of speakers, a tribute to the long history and international reputation of the conference.
Brexit was a game-changer. Then came the pandemic. And then the war in Ukraine. All have taken a heavy toll on agriculture, creating tumultuous and volatile markets – but as always there’s opportunity to be seized as well as change to be embraced. Amid growing political aggression, demand has weakened but supply could be among the greatest challenges for dairy in the next five years. Food security is rising on the agenda, but dairy companies face new challenges in the supply chain, and in supporting their farmers in the drive towards mitigating climate change and meeting expectation. These are the questions the conference will address: Who will be willing to pay extra and how much will they pay for it? How will supply, prices and trade evolve this year? What part will developing countries play? Most of all, how will dairy businesses survive and thrive?
