14-15 November 2023, Amsterdam

The Sustainable Packaging Summit is not your typical industry event. It is a gathering with a purpose, a mission to unite leaders and visionaries, transcending traditional industry boundaries, to confront the challenges and hurdles on our journey towards a more sustainable world. Building on the dynamic community that emerged around the Summit, the 2023 edition returns with even greater aspirations. More streams, more attendees, and a broader scope - this year, we aim higher.

Set against the beautiful backdrop of Amsterdam, on the 14th and 15th of November 2023, the Sustainable Packaging Summit will zoom in on the lessons and insights gained during the groundbreaking discussions in Lisbon last year. It will delve into the core objectives that demand our collective attention, offering a platform for leaders in the value chain to candidly address strategic roadblocks and discover opportunities to align businesses, regulations, and society toward a circular, net-zero packaging ecosystem.

Agenda

The program for this year's summit builds upon the game-changing concept introduced last year. In addition to high-level panel discussions involving key stakeholders tackling our strategic challenges, the multi-stage Amsterdam agenda introduces a new "Innovation Horizon" stream. This stream will explore technological opportunities, research and development strategies, and feature presentations from the most innovative startups disrupting the sustainable packaging space. The summit will provide a greater variety of formats, with core panel discussions interwoven with influential keynotes setting the agenda and workshops aimed at breaking down crucial questions for interactive discussion.
