Looking back on the past two years of a global pandemic, we see how a handful of megatrend forces are continuing to shape change in the world. First, we experienced a shared global crisis (the pandemic is a first in our lifetime) that impacted lives both short and longer term in similar ways around the world. Second, the economic crisis that was precipitated and magnified by the pandemic shines a spotlight on existing inequalities and deepening societal divides. Third, all of us face the consequences of climate change, one of the biggest issues and opportunities now impacting the food and beverage industry worldwide. The good news is that crises open the door for rebuilding in a more sustainable and equitable way.
