SUMMARY:InformEx 2010
DESCRIPTION:About Informex\n\nFor over 25 years Informex has been Nort
 h America’s leading trade fair for companies dedicated to higher val
 ue chemistry. The show began in 1983 with a need to support companies 
 that wanted new ways to produce cutting-edge chemicals\, more efficien
 tly\, and with greater reliance on the expertise of fine and specialty
  chemical producers. Today’s pharmaceutical innovators\, agrochemica
 l product makers\, electronic materials producers and other manufactur
 ers that come to Informex  find what they need for business success\, 
 mainly new ideas that make a difference\, and qualified companies with
  production assets that can make those ideas a reality.\n\nMost will r
 emember the first two decades of the show for its outsourcing componen
 t. Yet with the vast majority of technical challenges spotlighted in t
 he media either beginning or ending at the molecular level\, the next 
 25 may well be remembered as the era of Intellectual Alliances. With t
 he easy technology breakthroughs accounted for in patent literature\, 
 companies may work more in alliances to achieve the next big thing. We
  already see this in major global industries like aircraft manufacturi
 ng\, and with small start-up companies in search of economically viabl
 e renewable energy technologies.  So to will the chemical industry and
  allied trades work more on a collaborative basis going forward to ach
 ieve major technical advances in areas like green chemistry\, and sust
 ainability.
