Membership in Action
“Soon after I started working for Lenzing in Austria, I had the chance to come to Raleigh to take the INDA intermediate nonwovens course. The course helped me get a better picture of the industry, including different market segments and also the technologies that are used for producing nonwovens products. It helped me better understand our customers and everyone along the value chain, really, from raw material producers down to the end customer.
I would highly recommend the INDA intermediate training course to customer relationship professionals, business development managers, product managers, marketing managers, and people who work in production or development of nonwovens products. By attending, you get to meet a lot of people with experience in the nonwovens industry, both from an academic as well as an industrial background. It's also a great place to network, to get to know other equally minded people, and to learn a lot of the ins and outs of the industry.”
