[ACSGCI]

The ACS Green Chemistry Institute^® is pleased to announce that governing board member Lauren Heine and program manager, Ann Lee-Jeffs will be featured speakers next month at Chemical Watch’s Global Supply Chain Summit in Arlington, VA. Ann and Lauren will be discussing green chemistry programs and industry engagement at the ACS Green Chemistry Institute® and the Northwest Green Chemistry center. In addition, Lauren will present on the topic “Does Hazard Assessment Lead to Safer Products,” one of several at the Summit of interest to the green chemistry community.

The Global Supply Chain Summit will be held on December 7-8, 2015 at the Renaissance Arlington Capital View, minutes from downtown Washington, DC.  The Summit’s theme is tackling cutting edge approaches to the safe use of chemicals, product stewardship, and supply chain communications. It is one of numerous conferences offered by respected global chemical regulatory news and analysis provider, ChemicalWatch.

The Summit program includes presentations by a number of expert speakers who will address best practices and lessons learned from current approaches by regulators and the regulated community, including case studies from downstream industrial sectors.  In addition, the Summit program features a review of the latest work being done on the assessment of alternatives to high risk chemicals, highlighting the current thinking on substitution and alternatives assessment from both sides of the Atlantic.
