Organised by the British Plastics Federation, in collaboration with Interplas Insights, “Profitable Plastics: Unleashing the Power of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DE&I) for Business Success” will explain why a DE&I strategy could unlock greater profit potential for UK SMEs in the plastics industry.
