The Annual PSA Summer Symposium is back for its third year!
July 9-11, 2024
Chicago, IL
The only potato industry networking and educational event designed to keep conversations on the future of potato sustainability moving forward.
We’re headed to McDonald’s Headquarters in Chicago, IL!
Symposium attendees will have the opportunity to tour this LEED-certified sustainable building, with its green rooftop, McDonald’s storied history throughout, and a one-of-a-kind restaurant featuring global menu items.
The Event
The 3nd Annual PSA Summer Symposium is meant to convene our membership and the broader potato community around the tools and methods we use to tell the unique story of potato sustainability.
Our meeting is designed to educate ourselves with content from outside speakers and provide an opportunity for us to learn from each other in a workshop-style format.
The PSA Summer Symposium brings together leaders from throughout the potato value chain as well as a host of sustainability experts from within our membership to advance the discussion around potato sustainability and the good progress being made in potatoes.
