SnackLab is a free, one-day workshop that takes you from the science of healthy ageing and food innovation to a real product and business decision: what belongs in a vending machine, and why. Across four short talks from international speakers and three hands-on exercises, small interdisciplinary teams audit a real vending machine, design a snack, build a vending strategy, and pitch it to the room.

It is designed primarily for Bachelor’s, Master’s and PhD students across nutrition, food science and technology, pharmacy, biotechnology, business, economics, design, and communication. Master’s and PhD students are the primary audience.
