SCE Seeking Applications For ‘What’s New’ Virtual Sessions TAPPI/AICC SuperCorrExpo (SCE) 2020 has an- nounced that “What’s New” Virtual Sessions will be of- fered through a Zoom webinar the week of September 14, 2020. They will give SCE 2021 trade show exhib- itors the opportunity to showcase their new product, service, or application in a seven-minute presentation without commercialism guidelines/restrictions. TAPPI anti-trust guidelines will still be enforced. All exhibitors of SCE are eligible to apply and appli- cations and abstracts are due by June 15, 2020. The SuperCorrExpo Technical Program Commit- tee will be reviewing the abstracts and presentations. “Newness” of the product or service and the date that it was first introduced will be considered strongly in the selection process. “New” is defined as having been introduced to the market after January 2019. The presentations will be recorded and posted on https://supercorrexpo.org as a SuperCorrExpo pre- view and will be accessible until September 2021. Full details and requirements are posted on the Program page of supercorrxpo.org . For more information, contact Kristi Ledbetter, TAP- PI Corrugated Division Manager, at (770) 209-7319 or kledbetter@tappi.org.
