Learn, connect, and network on a new, innovative, virtual platform!

During this one-hour event, our Design & Innovation Community will discuss personal examples of failure during the design process, how to identify and avoid repeating negative patterns, and what you can do to rise above failure going forward. To facilitate our discussion, we’ll be using Wonder, an interactive virtual space. Wonder allows attendees to move freely between groups, creating a more spontaneous and creative virtual atmosphere that closely mimics how networking organically occurs in person.

We look forward to creating a nurturing, open, and dynamic space for our community to share, learn, reflect and empower one another to grow.

Design & Innovation Community

PPC’s Design & Innovation Community is a peer-to-peer network where designers at every stage of their career are encouraged to connect, learn, and explore the role of design and innovation in the paperboard packaging industry.

The PPC Design & Innovation Community is a safe place where designers can empathize, commiserate, celebrate, learn, share, and grow. We engage conversations and peer-to-peer training around specific industry challenges, all while reflecting on the past in order to envision future opportunities for innovation.

We’ll be sharing stories of those who have pioneered innovation and made the world a better place through package design. Designers and innovations don’t give up. Some Design and Innovation sessions will look to uncover past failures to inspire others towards future success. If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again. PPC’s Design & Innovation Community is here to support your growth.
