NUVO TALKS: Food & Innovation
With Interactive Displays & Tastings
Date: Thursday, June 6, 2019
Time: 6:30 - 9:00 PM
Location: NUVO Network, 1295 North Service Road, Burlington

NUVO Talks invites you to get a taste of what our region’s serving up in terms of Food & Innovation: Join our symposium on Thursday, June 6 at 6:30 PM.

Exciting things are happening in how we grow food, source it, distribute it, cook it, and serve it. Come check out what local food innovators from across Burlington, Halton and Hamilton regions are up to. Meet and chat, visit their interactive displays, taste their offerings.

Chef Damian Wills, NUVO’s Director of Culinary Experiences and Food Culture, will lead a dynamic conversation with our three guest panellists:

  • Jesse Donaldson, COO at SucSeed, a small-scale hydroponic gardening system that allows people to grow fresh herbs and vegetables at home,

  • Alex Yurek, from New Skew, food innovators infatuated with re-imagining food experiences, and

  • Marcia Wood, CEO at FreshSpoke, an online platform that connects wholesale buyers with local food suppliers.

Moderated and probed by Chef Damian, the panellists will tell the stories that drove their passion for food, innovation and technology. Then we open it up to you for questions.



“What’s happening with food today is nothing short of a revolution. We think globally while acting locally, we consider sustainability, climate, access and equity while never losing the joy, and sense of community food had the power to bring. Tall order. But that’s what we food innovators are doing.” - Chef Damian Wills
