Proposals may be submitted at here. Include the presenter’s name, title and company, along with the speaker’s or primary contact’s phone number and e-mail address. Also include a high-res photo and bio of the presenter.  Proposals should include a session title and an abstract of 150 words or less describing the presentation topic and including three “what you will learn” bullet points. The deadline for submissions is April 30, 2012.

IoPP is especially interested in presentations on the following topics: manufacturing solutions, sustainability, advances in packaging materials and trends and innovation.
Questions may be directed to Jim George, Director of Education, [email protected] or (630) 696-4011.
