This year, we are also breaking new ground with INTER PRALINE in order to respond flexibly to the special situation in these times: INTER PRALINE is going digital!
Like always, also with the digital version of the congress, the exciting topics, the excellent speakers and the networking will not be neglected:
For example, Laurine Franchi from Cargill will talk about the effects, challenges and changes that have arisen in the industry as a result of the pandemic.
Peter Désilets of pacoon GmbH will show us in his presentation new packaging concepts, materials and trends under the aspect of sustainability.
Aurélie Saglio, who works in research and development at Valrhona, will help us to understand the structure of ganache. Her presentation will focus on the role of ingredients in ganache texture, their interactions and, in particular, the role of cocoa. We will dive into the microstructure of ganache and gain insight into the link between ingredients, microstructure and texture.
Networking:
With the help of our virtual lounge, you can make contacts with your avatar, move around the room and invite people to a video call. Of course, our speakers will also be available in the usual way after each presentation for questions and discussions.
Here you can find the program as PDF-file!
