Oct. 19 2010 --- On January 13 -14, 2011, a collection of renowned researchers, regulators and thought leaders will gather in Salt Lake City for the GOED Exchange (www.goedexchange.com), a two-day event focusing on the latest issues and opportunities facing the EPA and DHA omega-3 category.

“The GOED Exchange is bringing together some of the brightest minds to provide multiple perspectives on the challenges, opportunities and research that impacts those in the omega-3 industry on every level,” said Adam Ismail, executive director of the Global Organization for EPA and DHA Omega-3 (GOED). “Our goal is for participants to walk away from the GOED Exchange with enough information to take action on the specific issues facing their businesses and to be able to help expand the omega-3 market."

Participants in the GOED Exchange will hear from speakers including Dr. Richard Carmona, the 17th Surgeon General of the United States; regulatory authorities from key global markets; the early innovators in omega-3 research including Dr. Michael Crawford, Dr. William Lands and Dr. Jorn Dyerberg; key non-governmental organizations and innovators related to sustainability of omega-3 sources; top market research firms and other leaders.

Ismail notes that the Exchange is featuring unusual elements designed to promote more interaction between the speakers and audience and more attendee participation, including onsite production of social media initiatives, professionally facilitated Q&A sessions and a structure focused more on discussion than presentations.
