SIAL Innovation Awards Prize Winners 2024
SIAL Innovation is a global food innovation observatory, run in partnership with ProtéinesXTC, that reviews thousands of applications submitted by the show’s exhibitors every two years.
Through SIAL Innovation, SIAL Paris recognises these innovations through about twenty theme-based awards allocated by category (dairy, seafood, frozen food, etc.), as well as special awards like the Own the Change (CSR) Awards, the Start-up Awards, and the Public’s Choice Awards for which the SIAL Paris ecosystem is invited to vote before and during the show. This 2024 edition features new special prizes such as the Top 3 Countries Awards, for the pick of the nations that have offered the most innovative products, and the Africa Awards. SIAL Paris is a trendsetter and offers visitors a unique insight into the future of global food through a dedicated area at the show featuring products from the SIAL Innovation selection.
INNOVATION BOOSTED IN 2024
Quality and quantity: the SIAL Innovation 2024 Awards showcase the agri-food sector's adaptability and dynamism.
Recent crises like the Covid-19 pandemic, the war in Ukraine, and rising inflation have shifted innovation from focusing on healthy, natural, and ethical topics to addressing a need for comfort.
"Sustainable pleasure" is emerging, combining ecological and wellness goals with a lighter approach. This challenge has been embraced by market players, as shown by over 2,000 new products presented at SIAL Innovation, envisioning a greener and more enjoyable future.
