Hello WU students! Our team at WU Competence Center STaR<https://www.wu.ac.at/en/star/> invites you to the upcoming WU Matters WU Talks event on the Revolution in the Food Industry. We realize we’re (unfortunately) competing against the December weather, Christmas markets, and the public holiday on Thu. But we hope some of you can make it nevertheless! Free snacks and an opportunity to network afterwards. WU matters. WU talks – Revolution in the Food Industry When? Wed., December 7, 18:00-19:30 Where? WU LC, Festsaal 1 [The event will be held in English] It is often said that we are what we eat. Food is a vital part of everyone’s daily life, but our current food system is far from sustainable. Lessening meat production and food waste have been shown to reduce our carbon footprint and increase societal well-being. Are research and business partnerships the solution for scaling up radical innovations in the food industry? Is there a food revolution on the horizon? We have a unique group of speakers/panelists to tackle these questions, including a performance artist Martin Hablesreiter (who may or may not do something unexpected on the stage), the co-founder and CEO of Arkeon (CO2 to clean label ingredients) Gregor Tegl, and three WU’s researchers on the topic: Christina Holweg, Doris Schneeberger, and Magdalena Winkler. Afterward, there will be some time for social mingling with drinks and snacks at the LC foyer.
