The Diet of the Future (Access by Invitation)

21 April - 21 April IMP, from 12 to 1 PM

In 1800 there were eight hundred eighty millions people in the world. Today, two hundred years later, we are seven billion, and in thirty-five years we will be two millions more, everybody wishing for a good health and for preventing diseases. Moreover, in the next twenty-five years we will lose the 10% of the cultivable surface for the erosion, climate change and salinity. The population pyramid will be changing, especially in developed countries, and we will have more and more senior population that need medical cares, increasing the sanitary expense. How can we respond to this challenge? For one side, producing more and better, for another, creating foods and diets that during our life will permit us to have a good health and prevent diseases. Companies that invest in instruments that allow to obtain a bigger production of raw materials for the agrifood sector in an extremely sustainable environment, or companies that design innovative foods that prevent big plagues for health (metabolic syndrome, neurodegenerative diseases or, why not?, cancer) will take a big part of the future market.
