SUMMARY:The Global OTR Conference
DESCRIPTION:The Global OTR Conference\, set to take place from October 1 to 3\, 2025\, at the Hilton Old Town in Antwerp\, Belgium \nThe conference is structured around the OTR tire lifecycle and is driven by the urgent need for sustainability. As the industry faces mounting pressure to reduce emissions\, extend product life\, and implement circular systems\, the event presents a forward-thinking agenda that treats sustainable lifecycle management not as a theme\, but as a necessity. \nThe program begins with a keynote by Ciaran Little\, Vice President at Smithers\, offering insights into global market trends\, forecasts\, and the environmental challenges shaping the OTR sector. This is followed by a panel discussion moderated by Little\, where leading tire manufacturers will share their perspectives on the future and the role of sustainability in their strategies. \nLeadership development is addressed in a workshop led by Peter Flade\, Partner at All In Works\, titled “Learn to Let Go.” This session focuses on empowering teams to take ownership and drive sustainable change through autonomy and accountability. \nSafety and service are explored in a session supported by KLINGE and moderated by CEO Al Klinge\, which highlights how integrating safety into field services can enhance reliability\, uptime\, and lifecycle value. Another expert panel\, moderated by Koen Vandermeersch\, Founder of 102psi\, will examine strategic repair practices that help keep tires in circulation longer\, reducing the need for replacements and conserving resources.

SUMMARY:2035 Polyurethanes Technical Conference
DESCRIPTION:Join leading polyurethanes industry professionals and experts from all over the world October 6-8\, 2025\, at the Hyatt Regency St. Louis at the Arch in St. Louis\, Mo.\, for the 2025 Polyurethanes Technical Conference. The conference\, hosted by the American Chemistry Council’s (ACC) Center for the Polyurethanes Industry (CPI)\, will feature new educational sessions and other premier networking opportunities for attendees.\n\n \n\nCPI’s leading Professional Development Program (PDP) will offer two new virtual courses – “Bio-Based Raw Materials Course” and “Artificial Intelligence (AI) Governance and Practical Use in Chemistry.” The bio-based course will cover the evolution of polymers and the history of polyurethanes\, exploring the shift from synthetic to natural raw materials\, and feature discussions on their innovative chemistry and formulation techniques. The AI course will discuss its practical applications in polyurethane production\, including ethical considerations\, regulatory frameworks\, and hands-on AI tool usage for optimizing formulations.\n\n \n\nIn addition\, a brand-new event for this year will be the “Women in Polyurethanes” luncheon on the conference’s second day. The limited-capacity event will feature women leaders in the polyurethanes industry discussing their career journeys\, challenges\, and successes. Mary Bogdan from Honeywell\, this year’s conference chair\, will be the moderator.\n\n \n\nRegister today for the 2025 Polyurethanes Technical Conference to take advantage of these educational and professional opportunities!
