Packaging World Publisher Joe Angel shares his enthusiasm about Packaging Law Forum. “We’re excited about this newest entry into Summit Publishing Company’s offering of face-to-face events. Eric Greenberg, Packaging World’s contributing legal editor, is a respected packaging law attorney. His expertise and breadth of relationships in the legal and regulatory community have enabled him to assemble a blue chip roster of speakers. This program is designed to educate upper level professionals at food and beverage packaging companies and packaging suppliers. Attendees will gain the knowledge they need to make better-informed decisions, as well as an increased awareness of issues which should be on their business agenda.”
