The remainder of the event will focus on presentations by attendees, who will each be given 2 minutes to share their thoughts and experiences about the desirability, feasibility and sustainability of reducing plastics in their part of the industry. Attendees interested in sharing their stories should opt-in for this first come first served opportunity during registration by February 12.
