Have your say on how we use technology to make the Food and Drink Sector a better enabled, more productive industry, delivering better health, cost and convenience outcomes for customers!

In the latest State of Industry survey, you told us that business confidence is down 6% since the previous quarter, and there is ongoing uncertainty about demand, business environment and upcoming regulation. We want to understand in more detail what this means for investing in, and implementing, digital and AI solutions, as well as automating areas of your operation – what are the biggest challenges you currently face?

This survey should take less than 5 minutes (complete it over your morning coffee!) and will help us to understand the biggest barriers to innovation the sector faces and use this to help shape policy as well and industry collaboration. Please respond and tell us your view. For those who complete the survey, we can share the detailed insights as well as broader recommendations ahead of this being formally published later this year – you have the option to add your email address and receive this, or to remain anonymous when filling out the survey.
