May 6 Luncheon/Webcast "A New World -- A Look at the Post-Recovery Global Chemical Industry"
Abstract: In 2015, when the chemical industry looks back at the current period, it will likely be remembered less for the impact of the worst economic downturn since the Great Depression, but more as the inflection point that hastened the shift of industry’s center of focus toward China and the Asia region. The Mideast, meanwhile, continues to transform the global petrochemicals production landscape and, in the first decade of the 21st century, will cement its position as the production hub for petrochemicals, most of which are destined for export markets in Asia and Europe. Given these dynamics, what are the challenges and opportunities facing the global chemical industry:
- How is this emerging global trade pattern reshaping the chemical industry?
- Who stands to benefit, and who stands to lose share?
- How can a global business leader thrive in this environment?
