IMPORTANT: Presentations must be non-commercial and not a sales effort.  The brief, one-time mention of product sources is allowable and even informative, but no competitive or marketing pitches are allowed. 

Audiences are very intolerant on this point and speakers who are too commercial will be at serious risk of being interrupted by the moderator. 

No speaker will be allowed to make a commercial or sales presentation, even if this means canceling a presentation. 

No confidential information may be shared in your presentation.

 

Through a variety of programs, ISTA and the ISTA Educational Foundation are pleased to honor both individual and organizational achievement to those in the packaging industry inspiring and educating others to improve our world through transport packaging.
