What it Means to be a Brand in 2025 and Beyond

Rachel Bonsignore

In today’s rapidly evolving market, brands must do more than simply capture attention—they need to inspire loyalty and drive purchases in an omnichannel environment. Join us for a compelling deep dive into “What it Means to be a Brand in 2025 and Beyond.” This session will explore evolving consumer attitudes toward brands, the rise of private labels and value orientation, and how to activate purchase both in-store and online based on these trends.

Bridging the Divide Between Sales and Marketing

Donald DeMont

The rivalry between sales and marketing often stems from conflicting goals, different performance metrics, and poor communication. Sales teams are focused on revenue generation and closing deals, while marketing teams often focus on longer-term brand building and lead generation. This dichotomy can lead to friction when marketing feels their efforts in market penetration and brand awareness aren’t appreciated, while sales teams feel that marketing isn't providing enough support to close deals and grow sales. In this webinar, Donald DeMont of Antonina’s Gluten-Free Bakery explores the middle ground where communication and understanding bridge the divide between sales and marketing to create effective cross-functional teams.

Beyond Compliance: Establishing the Right Foundation for a Transparent Supply Chain

Liz Sertl, Lucelena Angarita

With the FDA’s recent intention to extend the compliance date for the FSMA 204 Food Traceability Rule, many companies are asking: What now? While the timeline may have shifted, the urgency has not. The food industry remains committed to advancing traceability and transparency across the supply chain. This webinar explores how businesses can use this regulatory extension as a strategic opportunity—not just to meet compliance, but to build a robust foundation for long-term success. We’ll discuss how end-to-end supply chain visibility can unlock operational efficiencies, strengthen consumer trust, and deliver the right product, at the right place, at the right time.

Transition Planning: What Corporates Should Expect & the Role of International Standards

Shana-Gallagher

This session will be about the development of the ISO Net Zero Standard, and what it means for “net zero governance.” The development of the standard marks a consequential evolution of the net zero transition and will allow the global Quality Infrastructure system to be leveraged for the first time. This will unlock important credibility and accountability potential currently missing from the forces influencing private sector net zero action. In this presentation, Shana Gallagher of BSI will therefore provide clarity to the business community and to consumers about the impending global definition of net zero best practice, what is coming in terms of net zero expectations for businesses, and increase participation in the process.
