Details
Eaters today truly touch every aspect of the food industry.
Every year, Food Sol's Babson Food Day engages eaters to think about how they select and consume food, and entrepreneurs to learn, connect dots, partner and grow. We gather to fuel the energy, creativity, and generosity of eaters and entrepreneurs working together to build the food future.
Babson Food Day is free to attend. No registration required. Open to all.
