At this year’s Big Conversation we’ll be discussing the next generation of consumers. Who are they, what do they want and how do they differ from previous generations? Discover…

  • Which trends shaped the Food and Drink and Beauty & Personal care industries in 2017?
  • How are the consumers of tomorrow influencing the products of today?
  • What does this next generation mean for the industry in 2018 and beyond?

The event will be split into two sessions:

  • Morning – Food & Drink oriented
  • Afternoon – Beauty & Personal Care oriented

Hosted by our expert analysts and featuring a panel of special guests and industry insiders, we’ll be exploring the trends that matter in today’s Food & Drink and Beauty & Personal Care industries.
