Without collaboration, world dairy industry couldn’t compete or innovate properly

(sticK - Nov. 12 2010 )
It may seem counter-intuitive that a wildly competing world dairy industry got together in Auckland to collaborate, but without such round-table discussions, the proof for innovative products and services out of the sector would almost be impossible to verify.

The whole International Dairy Federation/World Dairy Summit event recently held in Auckland is pre-competitive or non-competitive says the New Zealand president of the IDF, Fonterra’s chief technology officer, Jeremy Hill. While there might be a lot of debate, the IDF is really about collaboration, not controversy he says.
