Global Plastics Summit – Save the Date

Join us in celebrating 13 years of
The Global Plastic Summit

This year’s Global Plastic Summit, which will be held from February 25 to 27 at Thompson Hotel in Houston, Texas, is packed with excitement: a full-day workshop that will supercharge your knowledge of the plastics industry and the drive towards a circular economy, followed by 1.5 days of dynamic, market-driven content. Plus, don’t miss out on unparalleled networking opportunities as we focus on “Embracing Agility Amid Dynamic Disruptions.”

The plastics industry is grappling with significant challenges, including excess capacity, oversupply, and mounting environmental pressures. These factors have triggered global margin compression and heightened price volatility. The traditional reliance on solid demand growth in China is no longer a viable solution as market dynamics shift.

The upcoming U.S. presidential election could further exacerbate uncertainty in international trade and intensify global power struggles, which are already fraught with conflict.

Get ready for The Global Plastics Summit (GPS), featuring expert insight—from upstream business reviews to downstream technical applications and end-user trends. This year’s summit will include a full-day workshop to enhance your understanding of the plastics industry and the push to a circular economy, 1.5 days of market-driven content, and various networking opportunities as we focus on “Embracing Agility Amid Dynamic Disruptions.”

Key topics to be covered include:

• How will industry leaders sustain business operations in response to global disruptions?
• What must be done to mitigate excess capacity through feedstock cost advantages and favorable freight rates?
• Will escalating geopolitical tensions impact global resin trade?
• How does the industry continue to adapt to a new industry model for plastics?
• Can the industry leverage its history of innovation to create value in a world with new priorities?
