AmericaPack Summit 2026 will bring together senior packaging leaders from the fast-moving consumer goods sector and providers of innovative solutions at an invitation-only international forum focused on the strategies shaping the future of packaging.
The event will take place on October 5 and 6, 2026, in San Diego, California, and will address some of the industry’s main challenges, including regulation, supply chain resilience, materials innovation, new packaging formats, and the effective recovery of materials.
Key areas of focus for this edition include adaptation to SB 54, extended producer responsibility requirements, evolving labelling standards, supplier diversification, brand- and consumer-oriented design, and the need to close the gap between theoretical recyclability and the actual recovery of materials.
For startups and technology providers, the summit may offer an opportunity to gain a clearer understanding of the priorities shaping the agenda of major FMCG manufacturers: regulatory compliance, costs, sustainability, consumer trust, and solutions capable of scaling in complex environments.
The summit combines presentations, interactive discussions, and curated meetings to support knowledge exchange between industry decision-makers and companies offering solutions applicable across the packaging value chain.
