The ICCA 11th Annual Summit is where leaders in new menu development gather to learn, network and be inspired. Some of the nation’s most innovative chefs and expert speakers will share their vision for future trends in the foodservice industry. This year’s event is very exciting with the addition of numerous celebrity chefs from South Florida who will share insights into the flavors and traditions from countries in Central and South America. Simon Majumdar, Lorena Garcia, Michelle Bernstein, Michael Schwartz, Jeff McInnis and Norman Van Aken are just a few of the expert chefs and researchers who will offer key takeaways for you and your menu development staff to use in the future. We also have trend experts, wine experts and a session on Biotechnology in foods that you will not want to miss. These are big topics on the horizon including government intervention on labeling, marketing to Millennials, supplier partnerships and how contemporary wines are beginning to accelerate faster than traditional wines for certain customers.
