ASB BakingTECH is the American Society of Baking’s annual conference and a major technical event for the commercial baking industry. Designed specifically for professionals working across grain-based foods, it brings together bakers, engineers, food technologists, formulators, equipment manufacturers, ingredient suppliers and service providers to exchange knowledge and explore developments affecting modern bakery production.
ASB BakingTECH advances baking knowledge
The event is centred on the science, technology and business of baking. Its educational programme addresses practical challenges and emerging opportunities across the industry, with subjects ranging from ingredients and formulation to automation, sustainability, production efficiency, workforce development and new technologies.
A distinctive part of BakingTECH is its focus on technical learning and problem solving. Educational sessions give bakery professionals access to research, expertise and real-world experiences that can be applied to commercial operations, while workshops and discussions encourage the exchange of knowledge between bakers and suppliers.
The event also features the Formulation Floor, which connects bakery professionals with companies supplying ingredients, equipment, technology and services. Innovation Stations provide another opportunity for suppliers and technical specialists to present developments and discuss their potential applications within bakery production.
For commercial bakers, BakingTECH offers the opportunity to investigate solutions to production challenges while keeping up with advances in baking science and technology. Equipment and ingredient suppliers can engage directly with bakery professionals responsible for formulation, engineering, operations and investment.
Its specialist technical focus distinguishes BakingTECH from broader food exhibitions, providing a dedicated environment for sharing knowledge, developing industry connections and exploring the technologies and expertise that can improve bakery quality, efficiency and performance.
