Rich in new developm ents, the International Baking Industry Exposition (IBIE) innovated for its opening ceremony, too. IBIE 2016 Chair Michael Cornelis and Vice-Chair Joe Turano cut a loaf of bread Saturday morning instead of snipping the traditional ribbon. They and the IBIE Committee welcomed the waiting crowd that packed the Las Vegas Convention Center's concourse to "a world-class show for all bakers and suppliers in every category of baking," according to Mr. Cornelis, vice-president of American Pan, a Bundy Baking Solution. "It is the largest, most comprehensive event in the grain-based foods industry and most important baking event in the world," he said. "For the first time in our history," Mr. Cornelis added, "we have sold out our show floor, which means more innovations, more new technologies and more solutions for all of you to experience here with us in the next four days." The 2016 event is the largest and most diverse ever. Show organizers filled its halls with many new features and events. Mr. Turano, president of Turano Baking Co., Berwyn, IL, pointed to the Innovation Showcase nearby in the concourse, describing it as "our center for high-tech innovation [that] displays suppliers that offer leading-edge solutions and services to equip your business for the future." Part of that future is to expand the industry's sustainability performance. "Another gold standard in the industry is actually green," Mr. Turano said. Such efforts are featured by various initiatives that demonstrate the entire baking industry's commitment to becoming environmentally sustainable. Mr. Turano extended a special welcome to international participants, many brought to the show by the US Department of Commerce's International Buyers Program. "The innovation demonstrated by our industry suppliers will perhaps be especially appreciated by the international visitors who travel thousands of miles to get a first glimpse at the newest products, services and technologies in our industry," Mr. Turano said. Altogether, more than 100 countries are represented at IBIE by attendees and exhibitors. The heads of the show's management committee thanked several individuals and organizations. Mr. Cornelis spoke of the contributions of the educational task force headed by Andrea Henderson, vice-president, Rondo, and Lynn Shurman, owner, Cold Spring Bakery, Cold Spring, MN, and education director of the Retail Bakers of America (RBA), calling the educational program "the gold standard in the baking world." He extended thanks to the show's sponsors, the American Bakers Association, BEMA and RBA. Mr. Cornelis also acknowledged the efforts of the entire IBIE committee and staff. "You have done an amazing job," he said, "and your hard work is appreciated and important to this baking industry that we all love." Finally, Mr. Cornelis sent the eager show-goers off into the halls, telling them, "Your world of opportunity awaits!" - Laurie Gorton, Baking & Snack Sunday, October 9, 2016 * IBIE * 1 http://www.ibie2016.com
