At the Cold Pressure Council (CPC) summit, it was great to see that high pressure pasteurization is still alive, well, and being used in new and exciting ways, like enhancing shelf life and safety for foodservice meals at scale. A big thank you to Tom Egan for inviting Mattson Chief Innovation & Marketing Officer Barb Stuckey to speak about food trends and consumer behavior around them.

We were honored to have hosted a lively group of MBA students from the UW Foster School of Business. Katie Hagan led the group through a presentation about our mission and what we do. There was an unending flurry of questions. We loved the level of engagement in our business these students showed. It’s always a pleasure when we get to share insights on food innovation and business strategy.

It was a pleasure to host the NCIFT- Northern California Institute of Food Technologists New Professionals event earlier this month, where we took a culinary trip through the decades. From nostalgic classics to modern-day favorites, each station showcased iconic food trends from different eras. A big thank you to everyone who attended and to our amazing team for making it happen. It was our second Mattson event that week: a great night in Foster City, following our earlier AI event in Chicago. #NCIFT #NewProfessionals #FoodTrends #Mattson #FoodScience

Last week, the Mattson team got together in Half Moon Bay for an unforgettable off-site retreat. Against the stunning and rugged coastal California backdrop, we kicked things off with a highly productive company-wide meeting, aligning on future goals and reflecting on recent successes. We never have a shortage of work anniversaries to celebrate, so we also recognized the dedication and contributions of those employee-owners with meaningful tenure. Finally, fun, with a competitive scavenger hunt, followed by a lively happy hour that brought everyone together. It was the perfect blend of strategy, celebration, and team building, setting the stage for exciting innovations ahead as we close out the year and look forward to 2025. #wemakefoodhappen
