As a forum for members to exchange information and network, the Initiative organises events at regular intervals – such as the SAVE FOOD Congress held every three years at interpack since 2011, and the SAVE FOOD Meetings in the years in-between. After the first meeting at Nestlé in Vevey, Switzerland the second event was held in Madrid in 2016 featuring the participation of the Spanish industrial associations “Exporters and Investors’ Club” and AECOC/GS1. Her Majesty Queen Letizia of Spain was among the participants.

As part of this event Messe Düsseldorf and the FAO also officially agreed on continued cooperation over the coming years by signing a relevant Memorandum of Understanding.
