This year's Thermoplastic Elastomers World Summit will be taking place from 2-4 December in the culturally vibrant city of Vienna, Austria. And exclusively for 2014, the summit will be co-located with the Silicone Elastomers World Summit.
As Europe's key industry event and home to many of the world's renowned leaders from across the TPE supply chain, this year's summit is expecting over 250 key players in attendance and an extensive programme that will feature a whole range of topics aimed to connect and educate its loyal following from many of the world's leading TPE manufacturers, processors and end users.
This year's delegates will engage in the most important discussion that is sure to affect the future of the TPE market as industry experts present their knowledge, research, developments and more on the following sessions confirmed for 2014:
>> Session I: Supply Chain Dynamics: Understanding the End-User Drivers
Our core offering. Each year, we take a deeper dive into the economics, prospects, new developments, research and other updates on major end uses of thermoplastic elastomers. We go by sector, uncovering news and noteworthy projects under development, and the opportunities & lessons learned of each along the path to commercialisation.
>> Session II: The Future: Theoretical and Applied R&D of TPE Materials
The World's foremost researchers present critical R&D sure to have longstanding impact on the elastomer industry. Learn how new research is changing how we understand material properties, and what emerging theories must be taken into account when determining industrial applications and establishing effective corporate operations.
>> Session III: TPE Performance Innovations
How do we put into practice what we know about the short- and long-term forecast for our industry? What new operational techniques are available to balance the good times and the bad? What environmental and regulatory items are still causing major shifts in resource allocation now and for the future?
>> Session IV: 360 Market Analysis for the TPE Elastomers Industry
In this session, delegates will hear the latest industry developments with overviews in TPE and related markets, notes on emerging regulatory issues, and investment perspectives on major end use industries.
Don't just take our word for it - here's what delegates had to say about last year's Thermoplastic Elastomers conference:
• "TPE event gave me the opportunity to get a rapid snapshot of the TPE innovations and a unique networking opportunity" Victor Fernandez, Eastman Chemical
• "[Excellent experience] as usual since many years" Dirk Kilian, UNIMATEC
• "A great opportunity to learn about TPEs Innovation and growth" Valentina Cerato, Ford Motor Company
With another excellent round of updates that will spark new questions, new ideas, new competitive markets for thermoplastic materials and new business opportunities for all attendees, the Thermoplastic Elastomers World Summit 2014 is the one event in the calendar you cannot afford to miss.
Pricing for this conference is phased. The earlier you book your ticket, the less you pay!
