As the functions and forms of food diversify and technological convergence accelerates, 

establishing a scientific and trustworthy system of standards

has become more important than ever.

In particular, the advent of the era of customized foods—designed and provided

according to individual health conditions, lifestyles, 

or genetic characteristics—calls for a new role of national standards.

Against this backdrop, 

the Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs

and the Korea Food Research Institute will host

the Global Symposium on Standardization in FoodTech 2025 

on Friday, October 31, at the COEX Conference Room (Room 401), 4th floor, Seoul.

This symposium will bring together leading domestic and international experts

to explore the major trends in the future food industry, 

with a focus on precision nutrition-based customized food technologies. 

Participants will also discuss the direction of Korean Industrial Standards and strategies

for linking them with national policies to support these developments.

Shaping the future through Korean Industrial Standards and customized foods

We warmly invite you to join us
at the 2025 Global Symposium on Standardization in Food Technology, 

and we look forward to your interest and participation.

October 2025
