The Nordic Wildberry Conference is a new, unique opportunity to come together, share ideas, experiences and knowledge about the wild berry market, its opportunities, solutions and challenges.
You will get the chance to listen to and experience both engaging Nordic speakers and panel discussions with representants from research institutes, universities, public sector, food trade and other berry business. The conference mainly focuses on Nordic berries, but also on perspectives of the global market and cultivated berries as a competitive factor. You will get to know everything from the latest research to opportunities and challenges related to the berry market and products.
Today, the forest berry value chain is long and international. Local berry picking and processing have almost disappeared and have instead been replaced by foreign berry pickers in collaboration with large wholesalers. There is a national market for forest berries, but to get this value chain to develop further we need to tackle a series of challenges.
Among the sessions at the Berry Conference, you will gain a deeper insight into, for example, the current, the future, innovations, social sustainability and the migrant workers situation related to the wild berry market.
