Event Details

UL's former CEO, Loring Knoblauch will address:

• product safety standards and regulations, and whether they are safeguards insuring quality, safety, and reliability or non-tariff trade barriers.
• In an ever smaller and more global world, "globalization" is no longer just an attractive option for most companies around the world, but an absolute imperative with life or death consequences.

Plan now to attend this provocative presentation and learn why globalization is now no longer a passing trend but a paradigm shift of historic proportions.
