The event took place in front of 120 senior industry execs at the Abandoned Mansion in the heart of Bangkok. It was hosted by NutraIngredients editor Koe Tingmin and Editor-in Chief Gary Scattergood. Gary said: “This year we received almost 200 entries to the awards spanning products, ingredients and initiatives. And the calibre was exceptional. “As you might imagine, the sheer number of entries – and the high standards from all that entered – made the judging process incredibly difficult. “That’s why I’d like to thank our independent expert panel of judges, which has spent many hours assessing the entries in great detail. We are deeply grateful for their insights, patience, and guidance throughout the judging process.
The judges were impressed by the quality of the submissions, and the level of creativity and innovation they displayed. The judges were particularly impressed by the submissions that addressed the challenges of climate change and sustainability. The competition was judged by a panel of experts, including [list of judges] who brought a wealth of experience and expertise to the table.
