On behalf of Professor Heather Hartwell and Professor Dimitrios Buhalis.

Dear colleagues,
This is an invitation from Professor Heather Hartwell to attend FoodBiz – the Food Research and Innovation @ BU celebration, on Wednesday 18th May 2016 at Bournemouth University, Executive Business Centre (7th floor).
This FREE event brings together industry and academic partners to celebrate our Food Research and Innovation in the Department of Tourism and Hospitality at Bournemouth University to share findings from research and to take ideas forward within the health and wellness agenda.
Guest speakers include industry professionals, and an update on the latest research from Bournemouth University.
The event is aimed at businesses and organisations in a range of sectors including food, tourism, hospitality and those associated with nutrition/health operating locally, nationally and internationally.
The programme themes include:
Food Innovation – Chair Professor Heather Hartwell
The research and innovation activities at BU exploit complementary competences and enable the sharing ofknowledge and ideas from research to market (and vice-versa).
Food@BU4U – Chair Dr Sean Beer
How can the university benefit not only the user but also the foodservice industry, creating opportunities for a business to become aligned with a lifestyle product, and as a result corporate health, in a way which is novel, innovative and demonstrates excellence in science?
Food science at work – Chair Crispin Farbrother
Bournemouth University’s research in food is international, broad and multidisciplinary.
We look forward to welcoming you and co-creating the future of Food Research and Innovation.
