World Supplement Forum

In June 2023, IADSA is organising the first World Supplement Forum. This will be held in the headquarters of Danish Industry in Copenhagen on the day leading up to our membership Annual Meeting.

Against the backdrop of the pandemic, the Forum will bring together leaders in the supplement sector who are all committed to building healthier and more resilient societies. It will address how supplementation can accelerate the achievement of United Nations policy goals.

The Forum will also provide a collaborative environment to share insights, gain fresh perspectives and build new initiatives.

The themes will include:

2023 will mark the 25th anniversary of IADSA and the World Supplement Forum will also be an opportunity to celebrate the significant successes of IADSA and its members across the world to build open and vibrant markets.
