Smithers are excited to announce that we have made the decision to transform Sustainability in Packaging Asia into a fully virtual event. We believe this is the best option to provide all our stakeholders with the certainty they need to plan their participation and maximise the value from the event in a safe and reliable way.

How can I network successfully at a virtual event?

The Hubilo platform makes it easy for attendees to meet with their peers, discuss key topics, exchange opportunities, and find ways to collaborate. Check out the networking opportunities session at the top of this page!  

How will the online event be different than the in-person events?

We don’t think the usual event format will work in a virtual environment, and we aren’t going to try and replicate it. Instead we are going to leverage the benefits of digital by providing an interactive agenda of live sessions, pre-recorded content, and facilitated networking to enable attendees to choose the sessions that most suits their interests and availability. We are also utilizing an online event program that will make it easy to take advantage of unique, beneficial networking opportunities.
