SPE Cleveland to Attend the
PiNO 2025 Conference
Ohio’s largers industry is polymers, with 2,800+ polymer companies and over $49 billion in shipment each year, all right here in Ohio. In additiona to industry, there are numerous academic programs in and around Ohio that offer polymer focused degrees or conduct polymer specific research.
This presents an interesting opportunity having both academic and industry focus in such a small region. Our foremost goal as Polymer Initiative of Northeast Ohio (PiNO) is to attempt to bridge the gap between academia and industry, tapping the potential of the unique opportunity that Ohio provides.
PiNO is a one-day conference that connects students in polymers and related fields with industry. PiNO allows students to present their research in a judged poster competition and network with industry professionals during the job fair.
