Keynote speakers who will anchor plenary sessions include Bear Grylls and Chris Zook.

Bear Grylls, one of the most recognised faces of survival and outdoor adventure, will take the ONE19 mainstage. Grylls starred in seven seasons of the Discovery Channel's Emmy Award-nominated "Man vs. Wild" television series, which became one of the most watched shows on the planet. The BAFTA award-winning host trained in martial arts from a young age, and his survival skills were later perfected during his service in the 21 Special Air Service Regiment. When a free-fall parachuting accident left him with a broken back, Grylls' grit and determination guided his long recovery. He went on to become one of the youngest people to reach the summit of Mount Everest.

Joining the lineup is Chris Zook, best-selling author of books on leadership and business strategy and an advisory partner at the renowned consulting firm Bain & Company. Mr Zook specialises in guiding companies to find new sources of profitable growth and renew themselves internally to become more adaptive and entrepreneurial.

The conference experience extends beyond superior presentation content, with attendees invited to embark on area tours throughout the Bluegrass and network with peers from across the globe. They'll enjoy first-class dining and entertainment at the Kentucky Night celebration, held at the famous Kentucky Horse Park. International Night will feature cuisine from around the world, as well as the finale of the Pearse Lyons Art of Innovation Cocktail Competition. Join us as bartenders from China, Ireland and the United States vie for a cash prize and the chance to help develop the next innovative whiskey from Town Branch Distillery.

Now in its 35th year, Alltech's conference is attended annually by nearly 4,000 people from over 70 countries. Whether producers are navigating a fundamental change within the industry or just need a little inspiration, they'll learn about real-world opportunities and solutions at ONE19.
