Five sessions will be held under five module themes, providing a mix of practical sessions, constructive discussions and exposure to internationally renowned meat scientists and commercial leaders.

Theme 1: Meat Minds – industry leaders

Theme 2: The Farmed Environment

Theme 5: Production, Processing and Profitability

There will be further options for members to attend conferences, HCC led events and to participate in promotional activity.

Cultivate new connections and broaden your knowledge of the sector!

Each individual will be assigned a separate mentor from within the supply chain. Group members will initially meet their mentor to understand the business area of the supply chain in which they operate. Following this, there will be the opportunity to spend a working day with the mentor, with findings forming the basis of discussion sessions during the themed module days.

Contribute towards a group project to generate new industry information!

The group will design and develop a project during the initial session, with the end goal of producing information and data that can be published for wider industry benefit. The research area is the decision of the group with the potential to explore on farm practices, supply chain efficiencies and consumer perceptions.
