Celebrating 60 years of flavourful innovation: A Jubilee extravaganza!

2024 is a year of celebration. A celebration of the Institute of Food Science and Technology's journey into the past, present, and future. I am delighted to share my excitement for our 60th Jubilee!. As we reach this significant landmark in the lifetime of IFST, we have so much to celebrate from the last 60 years, while planning for the future as we consider how to overcome the myriad challenges facing the food sector today.

It's hard to believe that six decades have whizzed by since our institute first set out on this delectable adventure. Just like a fine wine, the field of Food Science and Technology has matured, leaving a cherished taste of progress and innovation. Picture it: 1964, the year the institute was born. A time when microwave ovens were considered futuristic, and the concept of plant-based meat seemed far-fetched.

Now, as we raise a metaphorical toast to our 60th anniversary, it's time to reflect on how food science and food technology has seasoned our lives. From ensuring the safety of our favourite snacks to influencing our lifestyle choices, the impact has been profound.

来自主席和 IFST 新闻

庆祝风味创新 60 周年：禧年盛宴！

2024 年是值得庆祝的一年。庆祝食品科学技术研究所的过去、现在和未来之旅。我很高兴与大家分享我对 60 周年庆典的兴奋之情！当我们达到 IFST 生命周期中的这一重要里程碑时，我们在过去 60 年中有很多值得庆祝的事情，同时在规划未来时，我们考虑如何克服当今食品行业面临的无数挑战。

很难相信，自从我们研究所第一次踏上这一令人愉快的冒险之旅以来，六年已经过去了。就像美酒一样，食品科技领域已经成熟，留下了进步和创新的珍贵味道。想象一下：1964 年，该研究所诞生的那一年。在那个时代，微波炉被认为是未来主义的，而植物性肉类的概念似乎也很牵强。

现在，当我们为公司成立 60 周年举杯时，是时候反思食品科学和食品技术如何丰富我们的生活了。从确保我们最喜欢的零食的安全到影响我们的生活方式选择，影响是深远的。
