Success story following the NPE show

Polymeris accompanied Lab Plastics and IPS on their joint stand at the recent NPE show in Orlando at the beginning of May. We facilitated a meeting between our two members and a representative of the State of Pennsylvania. Pennsylvania is a state with a strong plastics industry presence, and one that also actively collaborates with the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region. This meeting led to the strategic decision to mutually install their Volontaire International en Entreprise (VIE), Victor Rodier, in Pennsylvania from September 1, in order to develop their activities there. This initiative underlines the importance of international events in stimulating growth and strengthening the presence of French companies on the international market.
