Background

The U.S. remains one of the most attractive and competitive markets for innovative food ingredients, but regulatory compliance is a key gateway to success. Among the available options, the Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) process plays a central role in enabling companies to bring new ingredients to market with confidence.

In this session, we will unpack the essentials of GRAS—its role, its value, and its impact on bringing novel ingredients to market—while also providing insights that help you navigate the U.S. regulatory landscape with greater clarity and confidence. Whether you are new to the concept or looking to refine your strategy, you will walk away with a clearer picture of what it takes to move forward successfully.
