A Curated Leadership Community

The Leadership Exchange Shaping the Future of Enterprise Food Safety

Bringing together executive business leaders in foodservice to share, collaborate, and innovate meaningful improvements of the corporate governance of food safety.

About the Community

What is Food Safety Next?

Food Safety Next is a curated forum for executive business leaders who are responsible for food safety across a corporate enterprise. It starts with enabling the relationships and exchange between the food safety management business function and the supply chain, operations, legal, finance, risk management, facilities and equipment, and other business functional leaders.

Food Safety Next is not a traditional conference. Our model connects three interconnected pillars — our annual Conference, our focused Roundtables, and ongoing Food Safety Next Business Networking — creating a continuous cycle of insight, connection, and action that can enhance enterprise food safety management and culture for the foodservice industry.

It enables a working environment where food safety management and culture are collaboratively developed — not merely presented — then translated into best practices for real-world implementation.
