In addition to the main event, AMI has announced a series of one-day conferences co-located with the tradeshows in Cleveland. The conferences, taking place Nov. 3, 2020, at the Huntingdon Convention Center, bring together experts to discuss Performance Polyamides, 3D Printing Plastics and Plastics Regulations. A fourth one-day event, Developing the Modern Workforce, is jointly organized with Plastics News and runs at the same time.
Performance Polyamides welcomes the international supply chain for a full day of high-level presentations exploring the latest technical and application developments, market trends and topical challenges happening in the industry.
3D Printing Plastics explore the developments, production and applications of innovative polymers and compounds for 3D printing and other rapid manufacturing technologies. 3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing, is growing globally with increasingly customized materials being used to fulfill the expanding scope of applications.
Plastics Regulations provides expert analysis and guidance on a range of international legislative and regulatory issues that impact on polymer producers, compounders, processors and end users doing business in the US and beyond. The conference will provide a rare opportunity to gain focused advice on a range of compliance issues.
Developing the Modern Workforce, jointly organized by AMI and Plastics News, addresses issues involved with developing today’s workforce and coming up with fresh tools to attract and retain workers and sustain long-term growth. The conference will look at all areas of workforce development, including attracting future leaders and both white and blue-collar employees that meet the needs of a plastics processing company.
