2021 GFSI Conference Day 3 Roundup

PARIS — The 2021 GFSI Conference closed yesterday. Here's a quick look at the last day of the virtual event.

The third day of the event included several Ask GFSI sessions, a new form of programming in which GFSI leaders and insiders fielded questions from a Zoom-based audience. Topics included the Race to the Top Framework — unveiled last year in Seattle — the modernization of the Global Markets Program, the outputs of the Government-to-Business meetings that began in 2016 and more.

The day also featured 15-minute Tech Talks that offered focused overviews of specific food safety solutions, including talks by Judy Black, vice president of quality assurance and technical services for Rollins, the parent of Orkin and IFC, who talked about three ways digital documentation can help audits. Johnathan Walsh and Alec Teagarde from 3M Food Safety talked about converting data into knowledge.
