2019 Chewing on the Big Issues of the Food Industry at SXSW 2019

The topic of discussion for the majority of the food sessions will be the future. 2019 food industry hot topics, such as plant-based meat, alternative protein, and AgTech, will all be discussed, along with some futuristic topics that aren’t nearly as prevalent.

One panel will focus on the $300 billion wine industry as its companies strive to appeal to a majority Millennial market. Andy Dratt of Imbibe will speak about the future of sweetener technology, necessitated by the demonization of sugar.

Sessions will also discuss Aquaculture, the “Fourth Agricultural Revolution,” and the future contributions and challenges of young food activists and entrepreneurs.
