Kraton Performance Polymers' Investor Day & Innovation Expo (Transcript)
I’m also equally pleased that you’re going to get the opportunity to hear directly from the people in Kraton, the leaders that are making it happen in the global marketplace, day in and day out. I think many times we get around needless to say in our roadshows investor presentations and you hear from myself and you hear from Steve and Gene, but you’re going to hear firsthand from our business leaders today and our innovation leaders that are doing this each and every day living and breathing with the passion we describe as verve at Kraton to really drive portfolio change at Kraton which is exactly how we describe our business strategy.
I think as both Dan and Gene said, we have a loaded agenda and our goal is to keep that agenda on time so that people, if they have to choose to be selective in terms of what they want to listen in on or later go back and listen to what was said, we’re going to stay on that agenda and then decide whether or not we can allow questions during the session or whether or not we’ll just use the Q&A session at the end in its entirety for that wrap up.
I’d also encourage you because we’ve taken the time to also include a number of our market development and innovation managers to be present here and we prepared exhibitions of our key end uses and our key innovation platforms take the time during the breaks, during the lunch hour session and meet with these people because at the end of the day again, they are the ones that are the brains and the know-how behind the innovations. They are working with our customers and our innovation partners to again commercialize, to make this strategy real and they are very excited to share and talk about these innovations and I would not be remissive as a matter of fact and not emphasizing to you to take the time to do that because I think you’ll learn a lot about the things that we’ve been talking about over the last couple of years.
