It suits commercial and strategy staff at pulp, paper and containerboard producers, converters, brokers and packaging buyers, since two sister conferences are combined into one meeting in Chicago and the program centres on pricing, investment and supply chains. Trade associations such as AICC, AMEXICCOR and Ibá appear among the sponsors, which points to a cross-border audience; staff in unrelated materials sectors, or engineers after hands-on technical training, will find a market-focused program less useful.
Attendees at pulp, paper and packaging industry conferences usually wear business casual to business formal, with suits or blazers common for speakers and executives. Chicago in early November is cold, so a coat and layers are sensible.
