New chapter, new show additions Brand-new for 2025, the Nutraceuticals Showcase Theatre will feature dedicated presentations covering sectors across the industry. With over half of event visitors interested in finished products, the Nutraceuticals Showcase Theatre provides a great opportunity to get a 360° view of nutraceutical product innovation – with dedicated sessions covering contract manufacturing, finished products and beyond. Another feature making its debut in 2025 is the Future of Nutrition Lunch and Learn. The session’s theme – ‘hack the mass-market: creating game-changing nutraceutical products’ – promises a unique chance to learn from influential industry leaders and discover cutting-edge solutions before they hit the market. Expect exclusive, actionable insights from trailblazers who have transformed niche products into mainstream successes and redefined traditional consumer categories along the way. Women’s health is an increasingly hot topic dominating the nutraceutical industry, with growing consumer awareness about the role of supplementation in supporting hormonal health, fertility, pregnancy and more. It’s therefore no surprise that women’s health will be a big focus at Vitafoods Europe 2025, as highlighted by the all-new Women’s Health Spotlight. Held at the Conference Theatre on 22 May, the spotlight will provide science-backed insights into challenges across all stages of a woman’s life. The session will explore the latest breakthroughs in menopause management, addressing both physical and emotional health during this pivotal life stage. It will also feature explorations of beauty-from-within solutions for hair, nail and skin health – highlighting how nutraceuticals are rising to meet women’s growing demand for holistic well-being.
