We already produce enough food to feed billions—so why is hunger still a global issue?

In this short episode, Tony Hunter, also known as The Food Futurist, unpacks the uncomfortable truth: reducing food waste and telling people to eat less isn’t enough. If we want to feed 50% more people by 2050, we need scalable, resource-light technologies—and fast.

Tony explains why food tech is essential, but also why where and how we deploy it matters. Right now, most innovation happens in the Global North, while the Global South is left behind. To build food sovereignty, we must bring innovation—and infrastructure—into the regions that need it most.

Do you agree with Tony's vision?

In just 10 min, we explore why food technology may be our best bet—and what still stands in its way.
