The Board of the FINAT Young Managers Club (YMC) has been hard at work planning special events for young managers in the label industry during 2016. The Board consists of three core members of the YMC: Dana Kilarska of Purgina, Slovakia, chairman/treasurer; Rainer Ulrich, of Ulrich Etiketten, Austria, program management; and Christopher Jones of Alphasonics in the UK, marketing.
“Since my first YMC event in 2013, I have been really keen to be involved in a bigger way,” comments Jones, the newest YMC board member. “What I found at that first meeting were like-minded people who share my passion for the label industry and its ongoing development. I’m looking forward to contributing to our industry in a positive way, flying the flag for young people in labels and packaging, and opening our wonderful group to more people.”
Formed in 2008, FINAT’s YMC has met regularly in various locations across Europe with members who are both converters and suppliers actively working in the label industry.
Three members of the YMC board have stepped down due to the demands of other commitments. However, Pawandeep Sahni (Weldon Celloplast), Nicola Motetta (Euroadhesiv) and Francesc Egea (IPE) will continue to attend events and remain active members of the group. “We’d like to thank the three outgoing board members who have contributed greatly to the group and our progress as a forum,” states YMC Chairman Dana Kilarska. “Our recent growth can be attributed to their dedication and energy. We are very much looking forward to working with Chris, who brings enthusiasm and passion to the role and who I am sure will help drive us forward into the future in his role as our marketing guru.”
