With the theme of 'Innovations for Smart, Sustainable, and Safe Food Systems', we are inviting leading interdisciplinary researchers working on food systems, physics, data science or technology, industry experts and policy-makers to join us at our conference, where we will showcase the success of our funded research projects, present the latest knowledge exchange initiatives of our recently launched expert working groups, and provide networking opportunities.

On Monday 3 July, we will host our conference in the Oak Room, Principal York Hotel, where SFN+ funded researchers will present their high-impact projects. There will also be a private drinks & dinner reception (by invite only) in the evening.

On Tuesday 4 July, we will host our conference at the Lakehouse, Heslington East Campus, at the University of York, where members from the SFN+ Expert Working Groups will present their knowledge exchange initiatives. Representatives from funding bodies will introduce upcoming funding opportunities.
