P3 Forum for Alumni

September 28, 2018

Are you a Clemson alumnus working in packaging graphics or another related field? Then you’re not going to want to miss the second annual P3 Forum (People + Printing + Packaging) on October, 22-23 at Clemson University!

This year’s event is centered around ‘Change.’ Change breeds opportunity. Opportunity for business to grow in new markets, for brands to engage new consumers, for sustainable technologies to change our environment and for employees to solve new challenging problems. Research validates that the best leaders are ones that can strategically manage change. Come join fellow Clemson print and packaging leaders to discuss trends, strategies and opportunities that will ensure you are prepared to stare down change with an ‘eye of the tiger.’

A social networking hour will take place on Monday, October 22 from 5:15 – 6:45 pm at Godfrey Hall, hosted by the 2018-19 senior graduating class. A speaker lineup will begin at 8:30 am on Tuesday, October 23 at the Sonoco Institute of Packaging Design and Graphics.
