TLMI has announced that the association’s interactive virtual Annual Meeting will take place November 11-12, 2020. The meeting’s theme, “V2V: Beyond Uncertainty,” evokes the event’s virtual-to-virtual format with a speaker and presenter lineup that will focus on and address the most pressing issues currently facing TLMI’s converter and supplier members.

Presentation topics include the current economic landscape’s impact on the label converting industry, exclusive label and narrow web packaging industry market forecasts and trends, how the global pandemic will continue to affect printed packaging, and strategies for B2B sales in a virtual world.

TLMI President Linea Keen, comments, “TLMI’s entire staff and industry partners have been hard at work this past month laying the groundwork for the association’s first virtual Annual Meeting. This meeting presents a tremendous opportunity for both our members, and for TLMI. The Annual Meeting will be open to all employees working at member company sites. While we will still have content that speaks directly to company owners and managing executives, we will also have presentations relevant to personnel across sales, finance, marketing and business development functions. And of course we will still have plenty of live networking opportunities in addition to an interactive supplier virtual tabletop program. While none of us could have predicted the year’s events, TLMI continues to diligently work toward delivering our members the tools and resources they need. There has never been a more important time for the association’s members to come together to learn and connect with one another.”

For the first time, the Annual Meeting’s full program and content will be available to any and all employees at TLMI member companies. The event will take place at allotted time frames each day to ensure attendees have the ability to network and engage with other association members, learn from presenters and industry experts, and still have ample time to carry out their own work tasks and priorities.

In addition to interactive networking opportunities and professional presentations, there will be a special Virtual Awards Ceremony where the TLMI Label Award and Calvin Frost Environmental Leadership Award winners will be announced.

TLMI members will be receiving the official meeting invite and detailed program in the coming weeks.
