AWA launches virtual in-mold technology platform

The new initiative has been designed to complement the company’s established IMLCON, IMDCON, and IMECON physical in-person conferences.

‘AWAVirtual In-Mold Technology Industry Platform has been launched to provide the in-mold industry, across the value chain, with an ongoing live virtual platform committed to the development and growth of in-mold technologies and markets,’ said Corey Reardon, president, and CEO of AWA. 

The new platform has been set up to increase the profile of in-mold labeling, in-mold decoration, and in-mold electronics worldwide, as well as to provide ongoing market, technical, informational, and training content to the entire value chain including suppliers, converters, brand owners and designers.  

‘This platform will have virtual content scheduled throughout the year and be open and promoted to the entire value chain with sponsors' virtual exhibits available continuously,’ commented Francesco Ticca, conferences, and events manager at AWA Conferences and events. 

Part of the content will be the IMLCON, IMDCON, and IMECON event, but will also include other content throughout the year such as virtual seminars, workshops, training and panel discussions, all dedicated and focused on In-mold technologies and markets.  

‘This initiative does not preclude AWA organizing its IMLCON, IMDCON, and IMECON conferences as an in-person physical event in the future,’ concluded Reardon.
