The successful bid which sees this international congress coming to Italy for the first time was brought to fruition through a collaboration with the Italian Food Technology Association, AIM Group International, Rimini and the Rimini Conference Center (part of the Italian Exhibition Group)
Milan-based Rimini will host the 22nd edition of the IUFoST World Food Congress in 2024. It is the first time that this biennial event, organized by IUFoST, the international organization representing mroe than 300,000 scientists, technicians and food engineers from 75+ countries, will be held in Italy.
The bid was promoted by the Italian Food Technology Association (AITA), in collaboration with the Convention Bureau of Rimini Riviera and the Rimini Palacongressi (part of the Italian Exhibition Group), and AIM Group International, as the congress organizer. The strong support from Italian institutions, both governmental and private sector, as well as from scientific societies positively influenced the decision of the international board.
The event will be held from 8-12 September 2024 at the Rimini Conference Center. 1,800 participants are expected with about 7,500-9,000 overnight stays over the five congress days. This conference will generate a considerable impact, in terms of knowledge sharing and networking of professional and academic representatives from the entire food industry. A large exhibition area will allow companies active in the control, production, processing and storage of food to present their latest news and products.
The congress program includes technical visits to internationally renowned companies in the food sector, along the Via Emilia and the so-called Food Valley. Before and after the congress, participants will be encouraged to take advantage of their stay in Italy and enrich their experience. They will be able to visit other Italian cities that are home to significant companies in the sector, from Milan to Naples to Palermo.
