FLAG (Flexo Label Advantage Group LLC) has launched its first in-person Peer Group Summit at the Doubletree by Hilton Hotel at Seaworld in Orlando, FL, USA. The event kicked off on October 5.
Peer group meetings, and the opportunity to openly network with converters of a similar size facing similar challenges, have become so popular with FLAG members that a dedicated “Peer Group Summit” was launched this year to enable independent converters to exchange ideas and business opportunities.
Twelve member companies and six sponsoring vendor partner companies will be attending this inaugural event. Members will meet for a day-and-a-half in small groups, sharing input on topics such as COVID impact, staffing issues and supply chain disruptions.
According to John McKay, president and founder, “Our membership continues to grow, and with it we are able to help more independent converters connect with others utilizing not only webinars but now again in-person meetings. We’re very pleased to add the Peer Group Summit to our calendar of activities which support the needs of our growing Member base. And of course, we’re thrilled to be able to finally be live and in-person this year. We are really looking forward to bringing all FLAG members and vendor partners together at our Annual Meeting in Minneapolis in April 2022.”
FLAG members – with an average size of $2 to $30M – realize the type of benefits usually enjoyed by larger multi-site converting conglomerates. These include bottom-line savings, catastrophic recovery plans, penetrating new markets and application niches, and having access to new resources. In addition to the Annual Meeting, these benefits are delivered through a 24/7 online resource site, quarterly calls, “Lunch and Learns” and FLAG Peer Groups.
