E28 - IBIE and BakingTech 2019

What’s your favorite event for the baking industry? If you don’t attend any expos or conventions, you really should start too. Or you’ll miss out on new innovations, valuable connections and informative sessions. Today, we get a special behind-the-scenes look at two of my favorite baking shows: IBIE and BakingTech. First up Jorge Zarate and Kerwin Brown from the International Baking Industry Exposition (IBIE). This century-old show only comes around every there years, but it’s worth the wait. It’s the largest show in North America focused on baking, creating a space for all the different segments of the industry to come together. Suppliers, equipment producers, and bakers from different sectors get to make contacts, find solutions, and walk away with what they need to make their company successful. What do you have to look forward to for IBIE 2019? Jorge and Kerwin share some new features and what they’re excited for: - All the new innovations, as many companies use IBIE as a launch point - The artisan marketplace with chances to interact with bread and experts - The Baker Center to check out demos, technology, celebrity chefs and more - A whole day focused on education - A focus on the floor of automation, robotics, mechanics, efficiency, food safety, and clean label Last time IBIE sold out, so make sure to reserve your spot today.

What will the baking and food industry look like in a few years, and what changes need to start happening now? Kent and Lin weigh in.
