The event is supported by the WPO – World Packaging Organisation – who is contributing its worldwide network. Women in Packaging will take place on May 8 at 12:00 pm in the International Lounge located in the administration building.

Like many other industries, the packaging and processing industry is predominantly male. Women in leading positions are especially rare. Yet, companies benefit from more diversity, new impulses and different perspectives, not least in regard to the increasing shortage of skilled workers. This event will draw attention to barriers and focuses on the sector as an attractive place to work. Nadia TaylorNadia Taylor

The speakers are internationally successful, pioneers in their fields, marketing experts, and founders of companies. Sharing their experiences are Valentina Aureli, CEO of Aetna Group in Italy; Dr. Afsaneh Nabifar, Group Leader for the global market development of biopolymers at BASF; Australian Nadia Taylor, co-founder and Director tna solutions; Marjo Halonen, Vice President Communications at Metsä Board Corp. in Finland; and Gabi Bauer, Head of Marketing & Communications at Uhlmann Pac-Systeme (Germany). The panel will be moderated by Nerida Kelton, Vice President Sustainability & Save Food at the World Packaging Organisation.Marjo HalonenMarjo Halonen

This event was created to encourage more women to join the processing and packaging sector and to address young talent. As women are underrepresented in technical jobs as well as in leadership positions, supporting them can play an important role with regard to the shortage of skilled professionals. This includes support such as mentoring programs, image campaigns for the sector, creating equal opportunities and attractive working conditions. The panel discussion will focus Gabi BauerGabi Baueron which points are particularly important.
