Letter from Executive Director Jennifer Towner, January 2018

Dear Members and Industry Affiliates,
Happy New Year to all of you! I am very excited to see what will happen in our industry and our association in 2018.
Our theme for POLYCON is always, Building a Solid Future Together. The programming and activities planned for this year’s event will focus on just that – Building our Future. How can we continue to grow and strengthen our businesses in this ever-changing economy? What challenges are we facing and how can we overcome them? What are some new innovative supplies and techniques? When and How do we incorporate new business strategies and technologies into our plants and businesses? What are the new government regulations or changes to our standards that we need to be aware of?
The educational programming and exhibits at POLYCON will focus on these important issues.
Come to POLYCON and be a part of the presentations, workshops, discussions, and hands-on demonstrations. Come to see, learn, network, visit with long-time customers and friends and have fun. THEN you will take back with you some fresh new ideas for building your future, your company’s future, and our industry’s future.
The future of our industry is beginning to look different. But I believe that as the ICPA helps our members, Move Forward with Forward Thinking, it will be a very good future!
Best Regards,
Jennifer Towner
