The conference is dedicated to sharing ideas, learning about market developments, solving problems, and meeting with colleagues across the value chain and all release liner application areas.

With over 20 sponsors, it gathers members of the release liner industry, presents extensive networking opportunities and a variety of tabletop exhibitions. This year's overarching theme, ‘Shaping a collaborative and sustainable Industry', evokes a direct need of today's industry and helps to facilitate conversations among professionals during networking sessions and panel discussions.

The program features the first AWA Market Intelligence Round Table and Workshop and the AWA Exclusive Global Release Liner Market Overview and Real-Time Interactive Industry Survey. Next, Marko Schuster, COO of Mondi Group, will give a keynote presentation, while Stuart Stanford, director at Mazzone & Associates, will give an M&A presentation. Additionally, more updates and insights on silicone trends will address the future of logistics and transportation. 

Three panels take center stage at this year's conference. At the first panel, executives from UPM, Avery Dennison, Mondi, All4Labels, and Pernod-Ricard will discuss supply chain disruptions and the path forward. The two other panel discussions will address shaping a collaborative industry and sustainability leadership and its future.

The delegates will be invited to participate in in-depth presentations and panel discussions throughout three concurrent tracks on the voice of the customer, technical and innovation, and sustainability.

The conference takes place at the Novotel Barcelona City, in Barcelona, Spain. Registration is now open on the company’s website
