SFNV Impact Forum: Sustainable Packaging

SFNV Impact Forums are one-hour online seminars featuring Swiss and international experts that delve into the topics behind our Impact Platforms.

Why attend?

In just 60 minutes you’ll hear the latest insights from four expert speakers and then share knowledge and explore synergies with other attendees in our quick-fire Q&A session.

What?

When we talk about packaging, all too often we focus on what’s not working. But well designed and well implemented packaging solutions have a crucial role to play in shaping more sustainable food systems – from reducing food loss and waste to ensuring that 10 billion people have access to safe and nutritious food.

Building on Swiss Food & Nutrition Valley’s State of Play event last June, this online forum offers an opportunity to delve further into the trends and opportunities, and how we can scale the most promising approaches.

Join us to explore what challenges and opportunities lie ahead for Switzerland, and Europe, in shaping the future of sustainable packaging. A panel of experts will share their insights why sustainable packaging is the future, including… 

• How growing awareness of sustainability and regulatory changes are driving shifts in consumer demand and behaviour 
• The importance of a multi-pillar approach: less packaging, better packaging, a vibrant ecosystem to drive forward development
• The transformative potential of bio-based plastic packaging
• Why plastic packaging pollution remains a serious issue
• And how innovators are already scaling up sustainable packaging alternatives that extend shelf life and limit spoilage and waste. 

Who?

The session will be led by Christina Senn-Jakobsen, SFNV’s CEO, a passionate advocate for food system sustainability. She’ll be joined by expert speakers from the Valley’s ecosystem.

• Ann Lorentzon, Project Leader, RISE Research Institutes of Sweden
• Davide Braghiroli, Director of Sustainability & Packaging Regulation, Tetra Pak
