SEE YOU AT IFT FIRST 2024!

Charlie Baggs Culinary Innovations (CBCI) is eagerly anticipating IFT FIRST 2024, the premier event for food science and innovation. We are excited to engage with over 1,000 exhibitors showcasing cutting-edge ingredients, equipment, and technologies that are shaping the future of food. The event promises a wealth of opportunities to connect with industry leaders and explore transformative advancements in areas such as AI, food safety, and digitalization. We are particularly looking forward to the Innovation Lab, where science meets creativity, offering a unique platform to turn abstract ideas into tangible solutions. The lineup of keynote speakers from esteemed organizations like Amazon, the FDA, and PepsiCo will provide invaluable insights into the latest trends and innovations. IFT FIRST 2024 is not just an event; it’s a convergence of knowledge, inspiration, and networking that will empower us to continue delivering gold-standard culinary solutions to our clients.

Additionally, CBCI is proud to sponsor the RCA Chicagoland Region’s “Artisan Cheese Seminar, Tasting, and Reception” on July 14, 2024. This event, scheduled after IFT FIRST, offers an exceptional opportunity to not only network with culinary colleagues but to delve into the world of artisan cheeses and cheesemaking techniques. The seminar, led by industry expert Giles Schnierle of The Great American Cheese Collection, aligns perfectly with our mission to foster creativity and expertise in the food industry. This sponsorship reflects our commitment to continuous learning and our dedication to supporting the broader culinary and food science community. We look forward to engaging with fellow professionals in an evening of education, tasting, and networking, further strengthening the bonds within our industry.
