Personalized Nutrition 2021
28-29 Jun 2021
Virtual | EDT Timezone
Partnerships and Innovation: Driving the Personalized Nutrition Industry ForwardThe global Personalized Nutrition market is forecasted to grow to $16.6 billion USD by 2027. Increasing consumer awareness about the role of nutrition on wellbeing and immunity (in part driven by Covid-19), coupled with the rise in digital health tools, testing kits, and wearables, is exacerbating this trend. There is also increasing acceptance in the healthcare industry that the “one-size-fits-all” approach to nutrition has failed, and that personalized approaches have a critical part to play in preventative care.However, despite potential, there are still considerable challenges preventing this industry from becoming mainstream. Start-ups in this space are struggling with customer retention & feedback and proving that their products work, and CPG firms and supplement brands are still assessing how best to invest in “the personal”. This Summit will provide the perfect forum for the CEO’s and founders of innovative personalized nutrition start-ups to meet with potential partners and investors. It will bring together CPG firms, supplement brands, and start-ups who are specializing in this space, to foster further partnerships and innovation.
