Markets and Money: The Means to Good, Clean and Fair Food
How can business change the food system?
Changemakers Day
August 29, 2008

The “food business” often brings to mind agrochemical companies, industrial farming, and business concentration – much of it aimed at marketing unhealthy food. But is there an alternative role for business, where money and markets become the agents of change in the food industry? What are forward-thinking companies doing to put a more sustainable vision in place? What challenges – and compromises – do they encounter along the way? Join a panel of business leaders to lie out an alternative path for the food industry and discuss the ways they are creating it.
