FAA 2026: Advancing Allergen Management Across Asia
Food allergens remain one of the most significant global public health challenges. Robust, science-based allergen management systems are essential to protect vulnerable consumers, ensure regulatory compliance, and reduce operational and reputational risk.
FAA 2026 is shaping a food system where allergen risks are managed with greater precision, transparency, and clinical evidence—supporting safer food and stronger consumer trust across Asia-Pacific and global markets. As allergy prevalence continues to rise and landmark regulations, including Japan’s 2026 mandatory allergen labeling transition, take effect, the need for coordinated, evidence-based approaches has never been greater.
Join the 2nd Annual Food Allergen Asia (FAA) Conference in Tokyo and connect with leading experts from government, academia, healthcare, and the global food industry. The conference brings together regulators, scientists, clinicians, and industry leaders to bridge science, policy, and practice—helping organizations translate evolving requirements and emerging science into effective, real-world allergen risk management.
FAA 2026 provides a unique platform to advance how the food system identifies, assesses, manages, and communicates allergen risks. Through plenary sessions, parallel technical tracks, interactive workshops, and expert panels, participants will engage in forward-looking discussions that support harmonization, innovation, and practical implementation across the region and beyond.
