Dr. Andrew Hurley, Professor and Director of the Packaging Science Program at Clemson University, fuses design, research, and entrepreneurship to turn packaging into ROI-driven value. He founded PackCamp to introduce high school students to packaging, created the Brown Box Agency to connect student teams with businesses, launched the Packaging School to credential professionals, and established the Automotive Packaging Summit, uniting 400+ OEMs, part manufacturers, and packaging experts around the challenge that a car’s 30,000+ parts each demand packaging, often in seven or more forms. He also founded a consumer research company and led its transition into a division of a multi-billion-dollar, NYSE-traded corporation, and has secured millions in grants – with millions more available to industry, if you want to create or implement sustainable packaging solutions.
