we connect everything - ubloquity

Louise Manning, PhD, has worked as an academic, management consultant, lecturer and business and personal coach for thirty-five years addressing business management, quality assurance, brand equity, food safety, animal welfare, corporate social responsibility, ethical issues, and environmental protection.
She is passionate about food and transparency.
People on the planet live largely within urban populations, and are therefore dissociated from their food. To be able to access authentic, clear information around their food, they rely on labelling.
As technology increases Louise believes we have the opportunity to communicate about what is in the food, how it is produced, and the impact of our purchasing decisions, and be much clearer about all of that to consumers.
But she adds if we are going to build transparency, what sits with that is trust. It's trust in how the data is being collected, how it's being used, but also trust in the data itself, that it's representative. That is is giving valid, actionable insights.
