Podcast Spotlights Packaging Pros

Have you ever wished that you could talk shop with a peer on that boring drive home from work? Better Together: Conversations with Innovative Leaders, the Paper360° podcast, has got you covered. Host Jan Bottiglieri went to CorrExpo 2023 in Cleveland, OH, to record two episodes with packaging professionals at the event.

CorrExpo was a resounding success, with more than 1,200 people in attendance, an active exhibit floor, memorable networking events, and an expert-led technical program.
