09.10 AI In Food Safety: Real Applications, Honest Limitations & How To Implement Without Losing Human Oversight Or Accountability
- From visual inspection cameras on production lines to AI-driven complaint analysis and early warning systems – cut through the hype with case studies showing what is genuinely working in food safety operations right now
- Understand where AI delivers the most value: predictive risk detection, supplier performance monitoring, manufacturing plant analytics and consumer feedback integration – and where the technology still falls short
- Confront the industry’s biggest AI blind spot: when teams stop feeling accountable because a system is doing the checking, what happens when something goes wrong – and how do you build oversight into your adoption strategy from day one?

09.30 Food Safety Culture: Measuring What Matters, Correcting What Does Not & Embedding Real Accountability Across The Whole Business

- Move beyond posters and training sessions to assess your organisation’s true cultural maturity: explore the tools, metrics and benchmarking approaches that tell you where your gaps actually are and how to act on them
- The hardest challenge is not the quality team – it is everyone else! Hear how leading businesses are embedding food safety behaviours into procurement decisions, operational practices and leadership accountability well beyond the factory floor
