The second edition of the Big Food & Beverage Forum, hosted by Catering News Middle East, will take place on 20 September at The Westin Dubai Mina Seyahi Beach Resort & Marina.

Big F&B forum

Expected to welcome more than 150 F&B professionals from across the region, the forum will tackle the key topics, trends and challenges impacting the F&B industry in 2016 and beyond.

Attendees, sponsors and speakers at The Big F&B Forum will enjoy a morning of thought-provoking panel debates, expert speaker sessions and interactive workshops, with registration and networking to begin at 8am.

Dubai Tourism’s senior communications manager Aida Al Busaidy, will launch the event with a keynote address on the value of the F&B industry as part of the wider tourism conversation in the emirate.

This will be followed by an on-stage interview with Dr. Basem Abdul Moneim, public health specialist, National Tobacco Control Programme on what the UAE’s impending smoking ban will mean for the F&B industry.

Also confirmed are Damien Rizzi, Colliers MENA senior asset manager – hospitality, who will unveil an exclusive new report on maximising profitability in hotel restaurants; and Ali Sinaei, managing partner, Roundmenu, discussing consumer behavior trends and dining decisions.

Panel sessions include “Creating a more sophisticated F&B landscape”; “A rising talent pool: but at what cost?”; and “The trends shaping the UAE’s F&B landscape”, with a strong line-up of speakers combining a wealth of F&B industry knowledge and experience.

Following the panel discussions, we will welcome legendary British chef, restaurateur and author Gary Rhodes OBE to the stage to discuss his views on the F&B landscape in the Middle East and his plans for the future in the region.

A networking lunch with interactive workshops will follow, allowing attendees the opportunity to meet with peers and learn more about the best new products on the market.
