SAMPE reports that it plans to launch a new technical community platform designed specifically for professionals in the global advanced materials and process industries. The platform will provide a space for the community to make connections with vetted peers in private sector, government, and academia; share research and solutions; access the latest developments through SAMPE and industry content; and collaborate with partners to improve their businesses.

“We know that progress can’t wait,” said Zane Clark, CEO, SAMPE North America. “Whether we interact at an in-person event or virtually, our commitment is to provide innovative solutions that offer meaningful business and information exchange. SAMPE was founded to find solutions to current manufacturing and materials issues through an industry-government-academic network, and we will continue to do so. Our community is a collection of problem solvers—not having the ability to gather in person is simply another problem for us to solve. We’re already well on our way to achieving that goal.”
