Gastronomy in the Age of Social Media

The panel was moderated by Jagna Niedzielska, and Kacper Sproski, Szymon Czerwiński, and Sebastian Olma were also invited to participate in the discussion.
The panel also addressed issues related to creating authentic culinary content, the importance of influencers in the foodservice industry, and how restaurants can effectively use social media platforms to build a community around their brand.
