SUMMARY:VITAL 4.0 in Practice: How two manufacturers applied allergen risk assessment - and what they learned along the way
DESCRIPTION:Register here \nThursday\, 18 June 2026 \n\nSession 1: 9:00 AM CEST (Berlin) / 3:00 PM SGT (Singapore)\nSession 2: 9:00 AM ET (New York) / 3:00 PM CEST (Berlin)\n\nLanguage: English \nLive captions available in German\, Spanish\, Italian\, Portuguese\, Hungarian and Greek \n\nWhat VITAL 4.0 implementation actually looks like \nThe VITAL 4.0 framework is well documented. What is harder to find is an account of what it looks like inside an actual facility – with real recipe complexity\, real data collection demands\, and real decisions about portion size\, cleaning validation\, and testing method selection. \nThis webinar provides exactly that. Cristina Romero\, Senior Product Manager for Food Allergens at Romer Labs\, presents two real VITAL 4.0 implementations: Altes Gewürzamt – a premium German spice manufacturer with 100+ recipes and six controlled allergens – and a global FMCG manufacturer managing allergen risk across a diverse food and nutrition portfolio. Both cases are presented with operational detail\, and key learnings. \nWhat you’ll take away \n\nWhere VITAL 4.0 implementation proved more demanding than expected – and what each team did about it\nWhy data collection consistently requires more effort than the calculation itself\nHow portion-size assumptions can change a PAL decision – and why this variable deserves more scrutiny\nWhere testing supports cleaning validation\, product verification\, and ongoing monitoring\nWhat to consider before starting your own VITAL implementation\n\nWho should attend \n\nQA and QC managers in food manufacturing\, food ingredients\, and food service supply\nFood safety and regulatory professionals navigating PAL decisions and VITAL adoption\nLaboratory managers responsible for allergen testing method selection and validation\nProduction managers involved in allergen management programme design\nTechnical decision-makers in procurement and retail specifying allergen management requirements

SUMMARY:Step-Change Solutions: What’s Next for Automation in Food & Beverage Manufacturing?
DESCRIPTION:Register here \nWith food safety regulations tightening and operational costs continuing to rise\, food and beverage manufacturers are under increasing pressure to improve efficiency\, maintain compliance\, and stay competitive. In this webinar\, industry experts will explore how manufacturers can successfully automate for both today’s challenges and tomorrow’s opportunities. Attendees will gain insight into common barriers to automation adoption and practical strategies for overcoming them\, while also learning how to evaluate automation suppliers and develop effective integration plans. \nThe session will also examine emerging applications for artificial intelligence (AI) in food manufacturing\, including how agentic AI could reshape operations\, decision-making\, and production workflows in the years ahead. Additionally\, experts will discuss best practices for successful robot and cobot implementation\, helping manufacturers identify scalable automation solutions that support long-term operational goals. \nLearning Objectives: \n\nIdentify common barriers to automation adoption in food and beverage manufacturing and strategies to overcome them\nExplain key considerations when evaluating automation suppliers and planning system integration\nExplore current and emerging applications of AI in food manufacturing\, including agentic AI\nUnderstand best practices for successful robot and cobot implementation in manufacturing environments
