Future of Food

In the next 30 years, our world will need to feed 25% more people globally; however, diminishing resources and a changing climate make this a difficult—albeit achievable—task.

With the COVID-19 pandemic exposing inequities and inefficiencies across our food systems, there has never been a more important time to build a better Future of Food.

An Official SXSW Online 2021 Event

The Future of Food @ SXSW, presented by The Kroger Zero Hunger | Zero Waste Foundation, will be held during SXSW Online 2021, from Thursday, March 18th to Sunday, March 21st, 10AM CST- 6PM CST.

The event will bring together a diverse group of experts, leaders, and visionaries challenging us to think about how our food and agricultural systems will need to adapt to new pressures, and what technologies and innovations will help us feed the world while combating climate change and conserving the earth’s precious natural resources.

Live schedule listed here.

The digital experience is free and open to the public, but RSVP will be required. In addition, SXSW badge-holders will have access to exclusive premium experiences and content beyond the main stage.

All attendees will be able to purchase Future-Food-focused food and CPG products from a variety of startups and innovative companies, with a portion of purchase proceeds powering local emergency food access initiatives for local consumers in Austin, TX, that have been impacted by the pandemic and SXSW’s 2020 cancellation.

Join the conversation, take action, make a difference!
