Isigny Sainte-Mère is an independent dairy cooperative located in Normandy (France) whose origins date back to 1909. The rich pastures of this exceptional terrain are the source of prestigious and luxuriant grazing, a truly great source of butter and cream. The cooperative manufactures high-quality cheeses, butter, creams, and infant formulas. More than half of the cooperative’s sales are exported and the name Isigny Sainte-Mère is known all over the world.
Saving time as well as unlocking value from data are benefits of moving towards a preventive strategy rather than a corrective one – this is the next step according to Gérald Andriot, COO at Isigny Sainte-Mère. bioMérieux’s goal is to bring the right answer through Predictive Diagnostics.
Environmental pathogen management (EPM) is an increasingly important food safety prerequisite program as regulatory bodies move toward more preventive controls in food manufacturing. Jack van der Sanden, renowned food safety advisor, will share his insights on implementing and monitoring an environmental pathogen management program.
This webinar will present monitoring challenges and the considerations needed to incorporate them into an EPM program. You’ll discover risk-based logic that can help set an effective pre-determined response plan and get answers to the most pressing industry questions, like “What makes a good sample point? How frequently should I monitor? And what are swabbing best practices?”
Jack van der Sanden has worked in the global food industry for 35 years. With a strong cross-functional background, he has led production, technical, supply chain, and food safety and quality teams. He is currently a senior food safety advisor with bioMérieux, helping food manufacturers around the world with food safety and quality challenges. Previously, Jack was the General Manager of food safety and quality assurance at Fonterra, a multinational dairy cooperative based in New Zealand. During this time, he led a company-wide food safety review of Fonterra’s manufacturing base and redesigned the company’s food safety and quality standards for Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points and environmental pathogen management.
Jack has advised many local and international food businesses and managed consultancy projects and training in the U.S., Europe, and Asia. He has a food technology degree from The Netherlands and a postgraduate diploma in dairy science and technology from Massey University in New Zealand.
Presenter: Tim Stubbs, Vice President, Product Research and Food Safety at Dairy Management Inc.
In this episode of Friday Foodie Talk from bioMérieux, Tim Stubbs shares his insights about the promising era of microbiome and thoughts on how both industries and experts in our field are building the future of food safety together. As Vice President of Product Research and Food Safety at Dairy Management Inc., Mr. Stubbs regularly comes together with other industry leaders to discuss their best practices, people, and processes.
Watch the full video above to hear Mr. Stubbs address valuable questions in the food industry, including: What is the importance of the emerging trend around the study of the microbiome for our industry? What knowledge gaps need to be addressed? Which exciting innovations will become standardized by 2030? Is the food safety industry having the right conversation now to prepare for the needs of the future?
Mr. Stubbs predicts that studies around the microbiome and whole genome sequencing will change the rules of Food Safety. He reviews the new tools that will change the way we work, and he ends with a discussion on how food leaders are working together to build the future of the industry.
Today, we welcome Dr. Hannes Pouseele (R&D Systems Director, bioMérieux), Dr. Nicholas Siciliano (CEO, Invisible Sentinel), and Dr. Vik Dutta (Senior Staff Scientist, bioMérieux) to explore the new frontier of food safety and understand how Predictive Diagnostics will change the way we ask questions and solve problems.
This new suite of solutions from bioMérieux integrates traditional microbiology tools with data science, sequencing applications, and predictive modeling. It allows for analysis of everything from supplier and raw material risks to finished product variances, and even customer complaints. Now, more than ever before, we can recognize food quality and safety problems using a data-driven approach to deliver tangible, profitable, and safe solutions.
How will this change the way the industry thinks and behaves? How can applications and diverse data streams be applied to promote healthy and safe manufacturing? And most importantly, how will Predictive Diagnostics help the industry as the FDA and other regulators are pointing towards the need for smarter, people-lead, tech enabled food safety? Discover this and more, as we “see the future” and understand a data-driven approach to food safety and quality.
Sean Leighton is the Global VP of Food Safety, Quality & Regulation Affairs at Cargill, and has previously worked with food production giants such as Coca-Cola, Land O’Lakes, and Pillsbury. Mr. Leighton’s current venture at Cargill spans multiple industries, including agriculture, meat & dairy, food & beverage, and many others.
This video features perspectives from food safety & quality leader Mr. Leighton on hot industry topics including: How important is supply chain traceability in measuring trustworthiness? Are traditional internal audits still necessary? What kinds of data are needed to advance food safety? How can we shift industry mindsets towards the future of data science? To hear Mr. Leighton answers these questions and more, watch the full video above.
Our agile scientific team, with an entrepreneurial outlook, will help you shift focus away from the traditional silo mindset of addressing one issue at a time, to a holistic approach where data and scientific expertise work together to predict rather than react.
