Key Themes Revealed for
2020 Menus of Change®
Summit
We are excited to announce the major themes for the 8th Annual Menus of Change Leadership Summit—presented in partnership by The Culinary Institute of America and Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health—to be held at the CIA Hyde Park campus on June 17–19, 2020:
Understanding the Consumer Mindset in the Shift to Plant-Forward Diets and Menus
Climate change is an enormous threat to the future of our food system. On the bright side, food choices can play a critical role in reducing global warming. Learn what types of messages are most effective in communicating to consumers about climate change as it relates to food, how they weigh long- vs. near-term risks when making decisions, and how you can position your brand and menu language to resonate.
Design Health and Sustainability into Operations and Procedures
Hear from foodservice executives across the industry about how they were able to successfully implement change strategies in their operations in support of this Menus of Change principle. Case studies from both noncommercial and commercial sectors will focus on topics from replacing single-use plastics amid the ever-growing demand for delivery and take-out options to the most effective strategies for food waste reduction and recovery.
The Obesity and Diabetes Crises: Opportunities to Reimagine Carbohydrates on American Menus
Gain an overview of new and potential nutrition policies in the U.S., along with the science and business implications of the growing global diabetes and obesity epidemics. You'll leave with an understanding of the science, the consumer data driving demand for healthier options, and culinary and baking strategies related to offering delicious menu options featuring healthier carbohydrates and whole grains.
Climate Change and Dietary Strategy
The 2020 program will also feature inspiration from the environmental policy landscape from some of the most progressive cities around the world. Through conversations with farmers and ranchers at the forefront of efforts to use agriculture as a positive force of land regeneration, improved soil health, and carbon sequestration, you'll understand too how to leverage your operation's sourcing decisions and purchasing power to reward better agricultural practices—attracting customers concerned about
the environmental footprint of their food choices and supply chain transparency in the process.
And Much More!
While these key themes will drive the conversation at the 2020 Menus of Change conference, the program will be packed with engaging and interactive sessions on a wide range of topics across the spectrum of Menus of Change principles—along with plenty of actionable strategies for plant-forward menu innovation. Each session will help you take your business in the direction of healthy, sustainable, delicious food choices.
Read the full post outlining the key summit topics for 2020 at the Menus of Change blog. See for yourself why this is a must-attend conference for all sectors of the foodservice industry.

Advances in food history have always been driven by the inspiration and actions of individuals: by the passion of people wanting to drive change, by innovators building on the creativity and vision of others.
As our industry reboots in the wake of COVID-19, chefs are uniquely positioned to collaborate with experts in other fields to lead in critical areas such as transforming food systems, mitigating climate change, and reversing the unsustainable trends around diet-linked chronic disease. These same leadership moves will better connect our operations to the changing values of younger generations, and to future business models that embrace a larger community of stakeholders.

As we look toward the future of our industry, and recovery from the financial toll COVID-19 has taken, marketing your business will be more vital than ever. Editorial coverage is much more cost-effective than paid advertising and, often, is perceived as more authentic. But, knowing your audience is key.
In week 4 of the 2020 Global Plant-Forward Culinary Summit: Virtual Series,
you''ll hear firsthand from journalists what type of plant-forward stories they are tracking, to gain an inside track into how you and your business can make yourselves most relevant to the plant forward-hungry media.
RESERVE MY SPOT
And, even if globetrotting is not possible at the moment, we''ll vicariously indulge your senses in the cuisines and cultures of Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia, and India with demos and discussions from chefs Christina Arokiasamy, Mai Pham, Suvir Saran, and Prateek Sadhu.
Plus, take a page—literally—from the World Resources Institute
Playbook for Guiding Diners Toward Plant-Rich Dishes in Food Service,
and learn how Google Food utilizes this resource and integrates behavioral sciences around food.

Hopefully, you were able to catch the Week one Menus of Change?: Virtual Series livestream. More than 1,000 food and hospitality industry professionals attended this sold-out event and got insight into lessons learned from the pandemic, strategies for change management, and more. Catch up on all the interactive sessions and conversations here.
We covered a lot of ground this week, and there’s so much more to come. Here are just a few of the topics we’ll explore during
Week two:
Consumer dining trends—both pre-and post-pandemic—to help inform your menu strategies
and enhance your understanding of the consumer decision-making process
Climate action and
how to engage your customers around climate change communication
Plus, executives from Sonic Drive-In, Panera, Marriott International, and White Castle join Michael Kaufman, partner at Astor Group and chair of the Menus of Change Business Leadership Council, for a
business leadership roundtable
discussion on the year ahead and what we might see in the industry
And, though the live conference is sold out, you can still catch all the general sessions and breakouts each week, on demand, at your convenience. Recorded sessions will be available within 48 hours of each week’s event.
