The Australian Institute of Packaging (AIP) National Technical Forum is being held at the Sofitel Wentworth in Sydney on 30 April. The day will begin with a Women in Packaging breakfast, followed by the biennial AIP National Technical Forum, then finishing with the gala Australasian Packaging & Innovation Design Awards dinner.
The AIP National Technical Forum brings together packaging technologists, designers, sales and marketing people from all industries to better understand the technical side of packaging design.

The annual 2019 Australasian Packaging Innovation & Design Awards gala dinner will be held alongside the 2019 AIP National Technical Forum. The PIDA Awards are designed to recognise companies and individuals who are making a significant difference in their field and are the exclusive entry point for Australia and New Zealand for the WorldStar Packaging Awards. The PIDA Awards are coordinated by the Australian Institute of Packaging (AIP) and Packaging New Zealand.
The AIP will once again be supporting the annual Women in Packaging Breakfast Forum entitled ‘Disruptive education — flexible learning for the future workplace’. You don’t have to be a woman to attend; everyone is welcome. The keynote speaker for the Women in Packaging Forum will be Nikki Moeschinger, Managing Director, BrandOpus. Nikki will discuss Creativity, Spirituality and Human Purpose at the Dawn of AI. Nikki’s presentation will examine the importance of creativity on the future of humanity. Nikki will then be followed by a panel discussion, featuring influential and inspiring women working in the food, beverage manufacturing and packaging industry.
