NPE Plastics Show Returns from COVID-induced Hiatus with Newfound Spark

The triumphant May return of the COVID-delayed NPE: The Plastics Show will feature many new educational opportunities thanks to a wealth of added information sessions.

The three Spark Stages are one of those additions. Showcasing bottling, innovation, and sustainability, the Spark Stages will feature more than 75 presentations on the expo floor. These talks, presented hourly between 10 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. daily, are geared to letting attendees “hear from their peers on their toughest business challenges,” according to the NPE2024 website. 

From high-level market updates to more focused insights on particular lines of business, Spark Stage presentations will focus on a broad array of topics critical to the plastics industry.

The Spark Stages were created “to celebrate the incredible partnerships between exhibitors and customers that drive plastics innovation forward,” according to a PLASTICS spokesperson.

Throughout all five days of NPE2024, each Spark Stage will run 30-minute sessions on the exhibit floor. “Each session will dive into dynamic panel discussions and success stories,” the spokesperson said. “Audience capacity will fluctuate as sessions are designed to be ‘come and go’ and will be happening throughout the day.”

Specific sessions on each stage are scheduled to address the following topics (subject to programming changes):

NPE2024 runs from May 6 to 10 in Orlando, FL, at the Orange County Convention Center. See the Sparks Stage schedule on the NPE2024 website.
