The Organic Food Forum is an exciting new event, launched as a bi-annual physical gathering with an online version held in between. It offers a unique platform for businesses involved in or exploring the organic sector to connect, collaborate, and discover new opportunities.

This newly merged event brings together the strengths of two well-established gatherings: the Organic Food Conference and IFOAM Organics Europe Meets Business. The forum serves as a valuable platform for exchanging ideas and fostering collaboration among organic and partly organic businesses. Discussions at the event will focus on prominent topics and trends shaping the organic industry today.

This year’s edition presents participants with an invitation-only half-day webinar filled with learning opportunities, knowledge sharing, and input collection for next year’s physical event. Esteemed speakers and industry experts will lead discussions, offering valuable insights into the business dynamics of the organic sector.
