I’m proud to sit on the Advisory Board of Sparks & Honey, a global consultancy that helps some of the world’s biggest brands understand explosive and immediate cultural shifts and adjust their strategies accordingly.

A few times a week Sparks & Honey hosts Cultural Briefings from their studio in NYC.

Last week, they hosted a briefing on the Biggest Food & Beverage Influences to watch in 2024.

I joined as the guest expert and the conversation was fire.

From Ozempic to AI, inflation to microplastics, we ran through the sociological, technological, economic, environmental, and political you need to know about.

Are you looking for a speaker for your next event?

I deliver keynotes on the future food revolution. On Zoom or in person, inspire your colleagues with an energizing talk about the trends, technologies, and business models influencing the
future and how your org can play a role in shaping what’s et.

As an ecosystem developer, I've learned that why we gather and how we do it is key for breaking down silos, sparking innovation, disseminating information, and cross pollinating ideas. I also know that to create a better future, we have to
collaborate more. That mainly happens when we get to know each other, build trust, and don't see each other as "other."

In this episode, I share my philosophy for gathering diverse parts of the ecosystem and why it's so important to have an open mind and constantly seek to learn from others.
