BOHEMIA, NY – Dec. 2, 2014 – Registration is now open for Flexographic Technical Association’s (FTA) 2015 Annual Forum & INFO*FLEX Exhibition, which will take place in Nashville, TN. Forum, themed “Hitting the Perfect Harmony” is scheduled for May 3-6 at the all-new Omni Nashville Hotel. Adjacent to that, the 2015 INFO*FLEX Exhibition, themed “Imagine Tomorrow, Today” will be housed at the brand new Music City Center on May 4 and 5.

“The 2015 Forum is going to be a fantastic event!” said Forum Chair, Jessica Harkins Harrell. “The session chairs have been working diligently to put together relevant, dynamic and entertaining content that will provide the entire flexographic supply chain with great brainstorming topics and manufacturing tips that they can integrate into their own operations. The sessions will cover a diverse array of information, from future design concepts in the session ‘Upside Down or Inside Out: What’s Next in Packaging?’ to understanding what makes your colleagues tick in the ‘Tribal Knowledge to Technology’ session. The content is so diverse, no stone will be left unturned.”
