Alltech has been closely monitoring the COVID-19 outbreak, with particular consideration for The Alltech Ideas Conference (ONE). The annual event was scheduled for May 17–19 in Lexington, Kentucky, USA, and typically assembles more than 3,500 attendees from 70 countries for an exploration of innovative solutions across the global food supply chain. In light of rising health concerns related to the coronavirus, Alltech will present ONE session topics online, transitioning to a virtual experience instead of a live event in 2020.

“Our priority remains the health and safety of attendees, our colleagues and the communities in which we live and work,” said Mark Lyons, president and CEO of Alltech. “With that in mind, we have decided to host this year’s international conference on a virtual platform, allowing registrants from around the world to engage in industry-leading content in a way that is accessible for everyone.”

The Alltech ONE Virtual Experience will provide access to agricultural topics, including agri-business, aquaculture, beef, crop science, dairy, the future of food, pig and poultry. Live-streamed keynote presentations and on-demand video content from some of the world's leading industry experts, including the most impactful presentations from past years’ events, will be available beginning May 18, 2020.
