Packbridge visited by international clusters in October

One of the strengths of Packbridge is the breadth of our international contacts. These mean that we can often help to open doors for companies who want to make contacts in new markets. Among our contacts are other clusters, often in areas other than packaging. In October, we will see two examples of this when we are visited by clusters working with nanotechnology, plasma technology, food and plastics in Europe. These clusters are involved in the EU-funded project called Adpack, in which Packbridge is responsible for the packaging expertise. The purpose of Adpack is to identify the areas where it will be essential to deliver intelligent packaging in the future. Representatives from each cluster will be at Top Packaging Summit by Packbridge in October, and they will even stay on an extra day to network with other clusters in Skåne and to make study visits to Smurfit Kappa and Beneli as well as the ESS and Max IV.

In late October, we will also be getting visitors from the Baltic. Under the leadership of the Vidzeme Planning Region, a delegation of clusters will be visiting from Latvia and Estonia. They are active in fields as wide ranging as health, ICT, logistics and food.

  • “Vidzeme had heard of Packbridge so they got in touch to explore the possibilities of a study visit and some networking. And of course we said yes immediately”, says Johan Mårtensson.
  • “This is how we want to work, to build new paths into the international market for the benefit of our members.”
