Loftware, Inc. has announced that its annual Convergence user conference will take place this year between October 19-21 and is open to the public. Sign up for Convergence 2021 here to network and learn from other labeling professionals.
The industry’s largest labeling and artwork management conference, which was established to provide insights on labeling and artwork management best practices, offers attendees the opportunity to network and hear first-hand from other labeling professionals about how they are managing the labeling challenges and transforming their supply chains. The year’s virtual conference, which is expected to have nearly 2,000 attendees, will also host a variety of sessions highlighting industry trends, customer stories, product innovations, and interactive panel discussions. Additionally, attendees can view Loftware Spectrum, Loftware NiceLabel, and Loftware Smartflow product demos and participate in guided solution tours. They also will have the chance to schedule one-on-one meetings with Loftware labeling experts to address any specific questions or requirements.
The conference will include a keynote from Professor Willy Shih from the Harvard Business School on the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on global supply chains. Mr. Shih will discuss how companies have been affected by a supply shock, closely followed by a demand shock, and how this is forcing them to rethink their supply chains.
Convergence will offer a carefully curated mix of panel debates, customer presentations, product overviews and presentations around the topics that matter most to labeling and packaging artwork professionals. These include:
