Barry Callebaut launches BC LIVE, a digital events platform
Inspired by new ways of working during COVID-19 pandemic, Barry Callebaut, the world’s leading manufacturer of high-quality chocolate and cocoa products, is announcing BC LIVE, a new digital events platform. BC LIVE is launching the week of June 22 with a series of “bite-sized” webinars to understand lifestyle choices like vegan and keto, and how chocolate can play a role to meet these specific consumer needs. The series is ideally-suited for food manufacturers in the United States and Canada.
BC LIVE is a curated and high-touch digital experience, led by our in-house industry experts, that will deliver all the information that food manufacturers need to know about today’s chocolate trends and solutions.
We look forward to offering exclusive content in our 3-part webinar series, including a session featuring our in-house chefs, who will bring our favorite applications to life with a ‘better for you, better for the planet’ twist.
Customers will learn about trends in wellness & sustainability; product solutions, including the launch of two new solutions, for vegan and other growing lifestyle categories; plus, get a behind-the-scenes new concepts creation experience of “Better For You” treats created by our chefs in real-time.
BC LIVE will consist of three digital sessions with Barry Callebaut’s insight experts on Monday, June 22, Tuesday, June 23, and Thursday, June 25 from 12-12:40pm CST.
