The FoodTalk Show celebrates the dreamers, disruptors and crazy geniuses of food tech, with a three-course dinner and awards ceremony at a fantastic venue



At The FoodTalk Radio Show, we get to see innovation in action every day. So we decided to cerebrate the brilliant people shaping the future of food with the new FoodTalk Awards.

This is the place to be. We're holding our awards ceremony looking out over the River Thames and the highlights of London. We've got our lovely partners from Tech London Advocates and we're on the first day of London Tech Week (they're our partners too). This won't be like any awards dinner you've been to. Oh no. 

With their passion, vision and talent, UK businesses are transforming the future of food and the way we eat forever. Whether they're combining incredible flavours, making creative use of unusual ingredients, cooking up flavoursome free-from fare or giving traditional foods a healthier makeover, these food and drink innovators are really rocking the menu.

But it doesn't stop there - we'll also be honouring the heroes whose tech is changing the way we cook and live, the packaging pioneers who've got it all wrapped up and the fabulous food writers who are telling it like it is.

We'll need some help selecting the winners of our 'people's choice' award, so come hungry and ready to do some sensational sampling...

We'll also be giving our guests the opportunity to buy innovative drinks from around the UK during the course of the evening. Milk vodka anyone?

Guest speakers will include the brilliant Carolyn Steel - food urbanist, architect, author of Hungry City and internet sensation (her TED talk, How Food Shapes Our Cities, has received nearly a million views).

The evening starts with a sparkling wine reception at 7pm, followed by a delicious three-course dinner with wine at 8pm and we'll start handing out the gongs at 9.30pm. 

Booking fee applies.

There's still time to enter The FoodTalk Awards until midnight on 7th April, when entries will close.
