IoPP Leadership Meeting update The IoPP Packaging & Leadership Conference, scheduled for May, has changed its focus. Due to the positive responses we've been receiving regarding the IoPP Packaging Learning Center Conference at Pack Expo last year, we are moving the previously scheduled May 10 seminar offerings to Pack Expo in Las Vegas this fall. However, the annual and much anticipated AmeriStar Reception and Awards Dinner will still be held at the Hyatt Regency O'Hare in Rosemont, IL (same location as last year) the evening of Tuesday, May 10. On Wednesday, May 11, (also at the Hyatt Regency O'Hare) the annual IoPP Leadership Meeting will provide a forum to exchange ideas and explore the goals and mission of the Institute. Everyone is welcome to both events.
