Knowledge is power, especially in the food industry. There is a reason why today’s most nimble food organizations are digitizing their data and moving towards automation. By relying on automated data—collected and reported digitally—they, in turn, fuel their decision-making capabilities and land ahead of the competition.

Join Katleen Vranckx, bioinformatics product specialist from Applied Maths, for this webinar on digital readiness techniques. Learn how digitizing data can lead to efficiency, better decision-making, higher quality products, and a better bottom-line.

Learn how data can:

• Help your quality and safety team make faster decisions that improve processes
• Minimize human error and bias
• Verify assumptions and identify trends
• Clarify complex problems with multiple variables and influences
