Inside SSP’s 2025 Annual Meeting: Chefs Reveal Their Game-Changing Insights You Never Saw Coming
Huge thanks to everyone who worked so hard to make the 2025 conference such a success, especially the Annual Meeting Committee (led by Greg Fagan, Erin Foley, and Jessie Slater) and the SSP staff. I’m looking forward to next year already!

I echo my fellow Chefs’ reflections that the vibe this year was fiercely resilient and resolved to face the current attacks from the current US Administration together. While the anxiety and uncertainty were palpable, the energy was laser-focused on solutions and survival. From creative funding strategies and cunning start-ups (Jessica Miles & The Informed Frontier or Jeff Lang & Figure 2), to how we leverage AI and how we measure impact, attendees who gathered in Baltimore were determined to deliver positive change regardless of being a few miles away from the epicenter of chaos.
