SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., Feb 16, 2023 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Next month, the San Francisco chapter of Les Dames d'Escoffier International (LDEI) will host a virtual panel discussion titled New Frontiers in Meat & Dairy: Improving our Food System with Innovative Biotech, led by a visionary panel of female leaders from California-based companies that have pioneered exciting and delicious alternatives to conventional meat and dairy products.

The event will take place Friday, March 10 at 9 a.m. - 10:30 a.m. PST and forms part of LDEI's "Table Talks with Les Dames," a month-long online event series designed to celebrate the community of women in food, beverage, and hospitality.

Tickets are $25 and all are welcome to register at: https://lesdamessf.org/event-5137891

Attracting $3.1 billion in funding last year, the alternative protein industry is growing and evolving at an unprecedented rate. The virtual panel discussion, New Frontiers in Meat & Dairy, will present a new take on the future of food through systems and products-such as mycoprotein meat, cream cheese, ice cream, chicken and more-that are kinder to animals, the planet, and human health. Panelists Joanna Bromley, Co-founder and EVP for The Better Meat Co.; Nicki Briggs, VP at Perfect Day; and Amy Chen, COO at UPSIDE Foods will share their goals for making a positive impact on the environment and animal welfare, as well as present innovative new products for restaurant menus and store shelves.

"San Francisco and the greater Bay Area are home to many breakthrough food companies who will impact how food professionals and consumers think about, buy, and enjoy food today and in the future," said LDEI San Francisco Chapter President Pam Mazzola. "We're excited to spotlight these local companies and their global efforts to improve the culinary ecosystem."

"Table Talks with Les Dames" continues through the month of March, with additional online events including: cooking and baking demonstrations with accomplished chefs, interviews and panel discussions with authors, journalists, chefs, and restaurateurs, food and beverage tastings, and more.
