POC will host a daily drop in session to answer visitors legislation queries at BLE this year as well as supporting the industry with an exclusive Legislation Lookbook of the latest regulatory information.

While circularity is very much a target for the sustainable development of the industry, there is no ignoring the ongoing present reality of legislative challenges. With changing regulations and compliance queries being at the forefront for many, POC will be hosting a daily drop in at BLE between 12-1pm on its stand D254, to answer show attendees’ questions and provide the latest updates on legislation. This is available to anyone, whether POC Member or beyond, to stop by with your queries.

This will be further supported by a Legislation Lookbook, a helpful printed guide of the latest updates, created in partnership with the Global Licensing Group, which will be available on the POC stand (D254).

This guide brings together the key European regulations already shaping (and soon to shape) the brand and licensing industry, helping to share what’s coming so companies can prepare with confidence.

POC will keep this resource alive and current: through POC webinars, learning sessions, and regular updates, our community will stay on top of every new development as it’s announced.

POC will also provide an overview of the latest legislation as part of our talk at the Networking Hub at BLE at 4pm on Tuesday 7th October.

Titled: ‘Beyond compliance: Legislation driving change’, the half-hour session will spotlight the global and European regulations brand owners and licensees need to know, providing an overview of the latest updates and the steps needed to be taken to stay ahead and compliant.

This section will also feature an exclusive sneak peek of POC’s pioneering Maturity Index, an industry-first tool designed to efficiently capture and showcase environmental maturity data from manufacturing partners (licensees) for the brand owners within the industry (across all brand types – brand owner and retailer).
