Early registration discounts are available through March 10. Discounted hotel rooms are available to attendees through April 11 at the Renaissance Arlington Capital View hotel.

The 2023 Stakeholders Summit is an opportunity to help take sustainability progress in animal agriculture to new heights. It’s a chance to partner with stakeholders throughout the food chain and across commodities, to share ideas and form connections that will elevate the farm and food communities in ways that lift everyone and to collaborate toward vital progress. It's also an opportunity to learn how to help protect, sustain and advance our entire community. 

“Sustainability is a continuous journey, not a destination. It takes a continued commitment from all stakeholders in the food supply chain to advance progress already made in animal care, environmental stewardship, responsible antibiotic use, and food safety,” said Hannah Thompson-Weeman, president and CEO, Animal Agriculture Alliance. “The Alliance’s 2023 Stakeholders Summit is the ideal place for everyone involved in producing, processing, and providing meat, poultry, dairy, eggs, and seafood to connect with others throughout the food supply chain, engage on key issues, and safeguard the future of our food supply.”
