Keynote Luncheon

Branding: Keeping a Brand Fresh & Alive
Fred Gallasch, Gallasch Consulting Services, LLC
The importance of a well-crafted and well-managed brand cannot be overstated. Building a consistent brand image and keeping the message fresh and relevant is an assignment Gallasch excelled at during his thirty-year career at General Motors. Working as the “voice of the customer” for GM’s Corvette brand, Gallasch perfected the subtle art of listening to customers and translating their desires into the creation of one of GM’s most successful automobiles-the C5 Corvette. The power of branding and the influence a good brand strategy can have on your product are some of the insights that will be shared during the Tuesday luncheon.

Nonwovens Fashion Show

When science meets art the results can be stunning! New technology is pushing nonwoven fabrics further into the world of fashion and design. From seemingly simple shifts to elaborate gowns, the remarkable characteristics of nonwoven fabrics give designers more options and freedoms than ever before. Join us Tuesday during the keynote luncheon for a look at what design students from the University of Delaware can do with tomorrow’s fabrics.
