The line-up of speakers for the upcoming AIPIA World Congress is starting to take shape, with global online retailer Amazon, and major brands Unilever and AB InBev already confirmed.
The event, to be held in the Beurs van Berlage, Amsterdam on 14-15 November, claims to be the only global event for the smart packaging sector, and brings together stakeholders from the active and intelligent packaging industry and users to share information on trends, technology and developments.
“In the coming weeks, we will reveal more details of the presentations and panels, and confirm the Brand Challenge topic and scope,” explained Andrew Manly, communications director at AIPIA.
“But much of the agenda can be seen already on the AIPIA website, and this will, as usual, be updated in real-time as details are finalised.”
Major technology providers Crane Automation, Omron and Zebra Technologies are Platinum sponsors, and will exhibit some of the latest innovations, as well as making keynote presentations.
They will be joined by other leading smart packaging technology developers such as Antares Vision Group, AlmaScience, STMicroelectronics, Securikett, Toppan and Wiliot, with more to be confirmed.
“We have some familiar returning faces who are always at the forefront of smart packaging innovation with something always new to say, as well as some fresh faces to add their take on the way the industry is developing,” said Eef de Ferrante, managing director of AIPIA.
“With 20+ demonstration booths, top quality panel sessions featuring thought leaders in the sector, plus an exciting Brand Challenge from AB InBev, the Congress is set to be a dynamic and disruptive event.
“Running at the same time as the Sustainable Packaging Summit also adds a different and relevant dimension to the proceedings.”
