Innovators spotlight: Packaging systems for the future

11:40 - 12:30
In this dynamic session, innovators will present their solutions to a panel of industry experts and thought leaders, reflecting on how they're addressing critical sustainability and business challenges. This will help broaden our understanding of packaging sustainability solutions, and show what's been proven possible in the innovation space—the question is what it will take to scale these new systems, and how innovators can work in synergy with legacy industries in doing so. 
 
This session will also invite contributions from the audience, leveraging the collective expertise in the room to tackle key challenges such as:

  • Barriers to market access: Can we address cost and scalability effectively, without losing sustainability value along the way?
  • Adaptability: Innovation often stalls at the point of costly changes. What makes a solution adaptable enough to be a smart investment in times of uncertainty?
  • The case for open innovation: What does it take to make open innovation work for commercial success?
