EU FOOD SAFETY FORUM 2025

The third edition of the EU Food Safety Forum will be held on December 2-3, 2025, at the CNR headquarters in Rome and will mark a new milestone for the EU Food Safety Platform journey.
The formula of the Forum will be applied again to improve and feed the connection among policymakers, researchers, industry leaders, and young innovators to collaborate on enhancing the EU’s food safety landscape through innovation and multi-stakeholder engagement.
This year, a new session will be introduced, as proposed by our member Michele Suman from Barilla during the Management Board meeting. It will consist of a dedicated session for addresses and key messages arising from the multi-actor dialogue, to be shaped and conducted by the EU FOOD SAFETY PLATFORM Steering Committee.

The EU Food Safety Forum will include the following sessions:
- Science-Policy-Society Session: this session will address the importance of a multi-stakeholder approach to food safety, facilitating discussions among institutions and experts on how to prepare for the future.
- Co-creation Session: participants will contribute to the ongoing update of the Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda (SRIA), ensuring it remains aligned with emerging challenges and opportunities.
- Networking Session: attendees will have the opportunity to explore results and best practices from current EU projects, fostering collaboration and knowledge exchange across the food safety community.
- Young Researchers and Innovators Session: this dedicated space will empower the next generation of researchers, providing them with a stage to present fresh ideas and innovative solutions to food safety challenges.
The Forum provides a unique place for experts, policymakers, researchers, and industry leaders to exchange ideas, share knowledge, and set a strategic direction for the evolving landscape of food safety in Europe.
Join us in Rome to be part of this relevant dialogue and
help shape the future of food safety in the EU!
