In fall 2022, we asked the question that got it all started: How will the consumer meal journey change over the next decade as technology and innovation around new business models are introduced at every step from farm to consumer plate.
The result was a two days full of learning, community and connections at SKS 2022.
This is the full video archive of all the sessions at SKS 2022.
