On behalf of the entire ABA Board of Directors and professional staff, we are eager to welcome the baking industry to Boca Raton, Florida in a few days. We are thrilled at the number of industry leaders that will be coming together for the industry’s most prestigious annual event — the ABA Convention.
The Morning Business Session will kick off with an energetic panel, “Disruption – Business as Unusual.” Cyrille Filott, Global Strategist for Consumer Foods at RaboResearch Food & Agribusiness, will moderate a panel discussion on the variety of disruptions the baking business is encountering, including fast and vast changes in commerce, consumer preferences and the supply chain.
The panelists joining him on the stage will be Jean-Manuel Leveque, CEO of Delifrance; Danielle Gould, Founder and CEO of Food+Tech Connect; Aline Clavellina, Vice President of New Businesses and Global Brand Head of Health & Wellness for Grupo Bimbo; and Ashleigh Michaels, Corporate Executive R&D Chef for RaceTrac Petroleum, Inc. They will explore the changes the baking industry is seeing with the consumer, consumer preferences and the channels used to connect with the consumer.
