BACKGROUND
New initiatives and research by government agencies, academia, agri-technology and food sectors are reviewing protein needs in the context of production, health and sustainability. Within Southeast Asia, it is timely to re-assess protein sources, requirements and intakes, and to evaluate protein quality in our varied diets. New knowledge on protein science and novel protein sources will inform dietary recommendations, advance innovation and product development, and help address nutritional and sustainability gaps.
This symposium will bring together subject experts, researchers, health professionals, food scientists, government agencies, industry and product innovators to share and discuss the latest from research to development.
REGISTRATION
This 1.5-day symposium will be hosted in a hybrid format (In-person & virtual).
Registration Rates are as follows:
In-Person
Industry S$220.00
Academia S$150.00
Virtual S$60.00
**Virtual registration is applicable only for participants outside of Singapore.
Registration is open until February 16, 2023, 23:59 SGT.
Note: Certificate of attendance is available upon request.

Innovative and digital technologies, such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), Blockchain and Internet of Things (IoT), can enable the transformation of the food system into a demand-driven economy that provides consumers with healthy and sustainable food. The TITAN project, funded by the European Commission under the Horizon Europe programme, aims to support the pursuit of this goal through the deployment of 15 different technology pilots.
In this webinar, expert in AI ethics Christina Cociancig will provide guidance on the informed and aware governance of the ethical and data management risks of deploying such disruptive technologies. You will also discover the three TITAN's pilots based on AI.
Speakers
- Ms Christina Cociancig, TITAN Ethics Advisor, AI Consultant and AI Ethics Researcher, DPO (AT)
- Ms Amparo Roca, COO at AI Talentum (ES)
- Mr Manos Karvounis, Research and Innovation Manager at Agroknow (GR)

El Día Internacional de la Mujer es una fecha que se conmemora en muchos países del mundo. Cuando las mujeres de todos los continentes, a menudo separadas por fronteras nacionales y diferencias étnicas, lingüísticas, culturales, económicas y políticas, se unen en este día, pueden contemplar una tradición de no menos de noventa años de lucha en pro de la igualdad, la justicia, la paz y el desarrollo. (Antecedentes- Día Internacional de las Mujeres | Naciones Unidas)
Para el 2023, la celebración del Día Internacional de la Mujer de las Naciones Unidas es "Por un mundo digital inclusivo: Innovación y tecnología para la igualdad de género". La celebración homenajeará a las activistas y organizaciones que luchan por una tecnología y educación transformadoras para mujeres y niñas, explorará los efectos de la brecha digital de género en el crecimiento de las desigualdades sociales y económicas, pondrá de relieve la importancia de proteger sus derechos en los espacios digitales y abordará la violencia de género en línea. (Día Internacional de la Mujer | Naciones Unidas)
ILSI Mesoamérica es una organización comprometida con la promoción de las mujeres en la ciencia. Para este evento contamos con las siguientes invitadas:
