Be inspired at Package Design 2006

This year the Package Design conference includes the Package Inspiration Exhibition Showcase and a unique audience-participation session.

Co-produced by Packaging Strategies and Package Design magazine, Package Design 2006 comes to the Hilton Clearwater Beach Resort in Clearwater, FL, January 30 to February 1.

This Tuesday-Wednesday conference will kick off with a Monday evening Package Inspiration Exhibition Showcase & Networking Reception from 6:00 to 7:30 p.m. The Inspiration Exhibition will remain open throughout the two-day conference. Exhibition visitors can handle packages and read design/converting specifications for more than 200 award-winning glass, metal, plastic, and paperboard containers.

Package Design 2006 will concentrate on the tools, techniques, relationships, and total solutions paramount to innovative and successful packaging design. Sessions and topics will focus on design for production efficiency, superior performance, safe distribution, and stunning point-of-purchase impact that delights customers and drives sales at every level in the package value chain.

Special features include an audience-participation session Tuesday at a nearby retailer and the Package Design Tools & Services Expo from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m., also on Tuesday.

“Package Design,” says David Luttenberger, Packaging Strategies director, “is an ‘out-of-your-seat’ event including treasure hunts to local retailers, interactive response/voting devices that allow audience participation and immediate feedback to expert speakers, a Start-to-Shelf Cyber Design Tools session and hands-on demo, and the ‘Design-a-Palooza!’ finale.”
