The conclave will envisage speakers such as Michael Amick, president, International Paper; Carl Bohm, president, International Corrugated Case Association; Jack Johnson, vice president of Marquip Ward, the leading machinery supplier to corrugated industry.

The summit will discuss the evolving organised retail scenario, the role of secondary packaging in the supply chain and how the corrugators must adapt their equipment and processes to be future-ready.

Besides Corrupack, Package 2013, a conclave that discusses latest trends and opportunities in food and pharma packaging is organised on 5 July 2013.
