Webinar on “Navigating Change: The Chemical Industry in Flux”
For the first 30 minutes there will be the Annual Election of Officers and Board Members and the officers will report on the activities of Société in 2020.
For the remaining one hour, Peter Young, CEO of Young & Partners, a leading chemicals and life science investment bank, will provide a presentation on the major structural changes that the industry is going through as a result of major changes in geopolitical dynamics, regulatory changes, supply chain disruptions, the relative valuation of public chemical companies, ESG pressures, etc. We will then open up the floor to a discussion by all of the attendees about the topic. Société has held a number of these discussion groups this fall that have been highly successful where the attendees have been able to share experiences, knowledge and suggestions. In addition, it is an excellent way for people to meet new and old contacts.
