Fifteenth anniversary of The Food Futurist… now to the next fifteen years!

When I started The Food Futurist blog in May 2009, I just wanted to present my thoughts on the future of food and agriculture, as I was far from convinced by the narratives of let’s say official and influent sources. I also wanted to refocus my activities on food and agriculture, but had no clear and definite idea of what it should be, by then.

What an amazing journey this has been! Fifteen years of being invited to share my thoughts and bring a vision to many clients. I am proud of these fifteen years of accurate predictions, spot-on foresight and effective strategies

Thank you to all of you who have hired me during these years! I am very grateful for the opportunities you gave me and for the lasting relationships that have come from our collaboration.

However, this anniversary is only just that, an anniversary. Life goes on and all the challenges and possibilities that are emerging on our road to the future are confirmation that the material I produce is just as relevant and necessary as ever.

Full of energy and determination, I am looking forward to the next fifteen years of collaboration with you to develop more practical solutions that work and help you build a prosper and thriving future of food and agriculture.

Here is a short video I posted on my YouTube Channel, in which I talk a bit further on the next 15 years.
