Candy bars, cereal bars, energy bars, sports nutrition bars, breakfast bars - barely any other confectionery product group is as diversified and expansive as the one covering bars.
Within the scope of our workshop, we'd like to discuss the various requirements and solutions with the participants, and attempt to achieve practical results in team work. ln order to facilitate this goal, we will interview the attendees prior to workshop about their expectations and requirements towards it and try to realize the thus obtained requests through various work groups, if necessary.
Some ZDS specialist teachers will be available within the course the workshop on an interdisciplinary level in order to facilitate this.
Since this is the first workshop of its kind in English language, the participants may actively contribute to details of the schedule.
ln the first place, the workshop is intended for product developers engaged with bar-like products. However, it also addresses raw material suppliers who want to learn more about the requirements manufacturers have towards innovative bar-like products. The workshop might furthermore be of interest for sales and marketing staff who would like to deal with product-specific requirements towards raw materials and production.
The same workshop in German language took place from 22nd to 24th July, 2014 with an extraordinary review of the participants (see the statements below).
