Join us at Clemson University for the fourth annual Women of Flexo Conference, where we’ll unwind to connect, reflect, and recharge, and rewind to the fundamentals that drive innovation in flexographic printing. This year’s event celebrates both momentum and mindfulness: looking back to move forward stronger. You will gain industry insights, expand your networks, and experience exclusive tours of Clemson’s Sonoco Institute and Watt Family Innovation Center, offering a behind-the-scenes look at cutting-edge flexo research and technology shaping the future of our field.
