Emerging food risks in North America, and how the concept of a "food risk" has evolved over the past decade
Differences and similarities in how regulators are handling novel versus established food risks
What a rapid and agile response to a food risk might look like, whether such a response exists in North America, and whether existing regulatory frameworks can become more proactive than reactive
Manufacturers' challenge of balancing speed-to-market with regulatory compliance in an evolving risk landscape
The greatest tensions between food innovation and regulatory readiness in the North American market
Whether contract laboratories and testing laboratories are equipped to keep pace with emerging food risks
How companies can future-proof their testing and compliance strategies
The role that scientific partners like MilliporeSigma play in helping regulators and manufacturers become more agile in an evolving food risk landscape.
