Dairy processors will get a first-hand look at the new ingredients and flavors for dairy foods at the IFT 12 Annual Meeting + Food Expo running June 25 to 28 in Las Vegas. Billed as the largest annual food science forum and exposition in the world, it offers attendees and exhibitors the chance to discover the latest consumer trends, learn about cutting-edge food science developments and applications, and experience new products and technologies.

The three-day convention is packed with educational seminars geared toward providing attendees with valuable insights in virtually every area and at every level of expertise. More than 100 education sessions and 1,200 poster presentations, each led by experts in their respective fields, will address hot topics in the industry, such as food safety, product development, food health and nutrition, environmental sustainability, and novel processing and packaging. (For a partial list the sessions that focus specifically on dairy foods and processing, see “Must-see Symposia and Posters” on page 74.)
