Taking place in London on 27 January, the conference features speakers from NGOs, industry and academia from the UK, the US, Sweden and France.
Jim Begg, director general of Dairy UK said: “This event is not about the industry talking to itself and convincing itself that it is right.
“We’re taking the debate outside and inviting a range of perspectives. It’s the only way to progress, but frankly we are confident that we have a very strong case to present.”
