PACKNET is the Spanish Packaging Technology Platform that was formed as a non-profit association and public-private structure led by industry in 2009. It brings together participants in a “science-technology-innovation system” to identify and prioritize technological needs and define medium- and long-term research, development and innovation (R&D+I) strategies. Our specific goals are to: stimulate and promote the exchange of knowledge and its dissemination; encourage public-private collaboration; accelerate and promote the application by business of the results achieved in R&D activities; contribute to the identification of R&D needs in the packaging sector, and guide them to solve society’s challenges.
