Following a number of successful conferences the 2018 AIP National Conference, which will take place at the Marriott Resort, Surfers Paradise on May 2 – 3, will deliver a two-day educational program that will cover a broad range of topics relating to this theme.
The AIP National Conference is designed for packaging designers, technologists, engineers, sales and marketing people and is the largest packaging and processing conference of its kind in Australia and New Zealand.
Run by industry for industry the AIP National Conference has been leading the way in professional and personal development for decades and is a part of the annual Packaging & Processing Week.
