FoodCon 2026

NC State University is hosting the 12th annual FoodCon focusing on "growing together: partnerships for a resilient food system".

By bringing together a diverse group of over 250 students, community members, business leaders and industry experts annually, FoodCon aims to increase the awareness and understanding of the sustainable food industry.

Beginning in 2014 at UNC-Chapel Hill, FoodCon has rotated annually between UNC’s Kenan-Flagler, Duke’s Fuqua, and NC State’s Jenkins MBA programs in the years since. This year’s edition will be the fourth time NC State has hosted the conference and we are excited to continue the FoodCon tradition while also highlighting NC State’s unique perspective and expertise. This conference is organized by MBA students passionate about food, agribusiness, and sustainability and co-hosted by Poole College of Management, Duke Fuqua and UNC Kenan-Flagler.
