Research for breakfast: Food – from field to plate

On Fraunhofer Institute for Process Engineering and Packaging IVV You'll gain an overview of current developments and research in the food sector. Learn and experience the opportunities offered by research, technology, and innovative processes in food development.

The Fraunhofer IVV develops high-quality, healthy food and convenience products, including those high in fiber, high in protein, or low in sugar. The institute also supports companies in developing their own recipes. It offers analytical services for quality and sensory analysis along the entire production chain.

The focus of the work is on: optimising food quality and shelf life, developing food and functional ingredients, and developing processes and products for the technical use of plant-based raw materials and residues.

Lectures and laboratory tours will provide insights into current processes and developments in food research at the IVV. The subsequent breakfast will provide an opportunity to network with the participants and Fraunhofer experts.
