Opportunity: Workshop: Extending Your Reach in the Probiotics Space

Consumers are increasingly aware of the microbiome and probiotics, but behind the scenes there is an important need to stay up-to-date on the market trends, scientific considerations and regulatory shifts that will impact your business. In this year’s Probiotics Workshop, you’ll get insight into the sales and consumer trends in the U.S. market, hear about how taxonomic and genus changes have affected the probiotics space in the past, and get the latest guidance on upcoming naming protocols that will affect ingredient buying, testing and product labeling. • U.S. market trends overview – market data • Historical perspective on taxonomy/genus changes – what has happened in the past with a case study or two from suppliers that were affected • Overview of the proposed changes on Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium including timeline • Expected impact on finished product companies – how does this affect how you buy (knowing what you get and what it’s now called); how you test (what will lab and guidance documents look like); and how you label (what will the regulatory considerations and timeline for new labels be)
