Pittcon Announces Second Year Partnership with Food Safety Tech

The Pittcon Organising Committee is pleased to announce that Innovative Publishing Company, publisher of Food Safety Tech, an eJournal and producer of Food Labs Conference,  has signed an agreement for the second year for the co-location of Food Labs Conference to be held in conjunction with Pittcon 2014. The partnership provides that the registration fee to attend the two-day Food Lab Conference, March 4-5. 2014, will also include unlimited week long admission to the Pittcon exposition floor and technical program. 

The Food Labs Conference will take a more holistic approach to best practices in managing food testing and analyses needs as opposed to focusing on only one discipline such as microbiology or chemistry.  An advisory committee comprised of industry, academia, technology suppliers and consultants has developed the conference curriculum which includes renowned speakers such as John Besser, Deputy Chief, Enteric Diseases Laboratory Branch, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and Palmer A. Orlandi, Sr. Science Advisor Office of Foods and Veterinary Medicine, U.S. Food & Drug Administration. 

Food Labs Conference attendees will take away practical hands-on information that will help them improve lab productivity/efficiency and to understand and be in compliance with new regulations.

Marian Nardozzi, Pittcon’s marketing specialist commented, “Pittcon continues to expand into food science and offers a significant amount of innovations and technical sessions relevant to methodologies used in this industry. We believe that the co-location of Food Labs is a perfect complement and adds a tremendous amount of value for attendees.” She added, “We are looking forward to further developing this relationship in the future.”
