Building a Multibillion Dollar Plastics
Player: The Magnera Story with Curt Begle
From a single desk to a $3.5 billion powerhouse. Join us as we explore the remarkable journey of building Magnera, a global market leader born from a bold carve-out and reverse merger. Hear firsthand how a former Berry Global executive helped transform a blank sheet of paper into one of the world's leading specialty materials and nonwovens companies.
We’re teaming up once again with South Central Inc. to bring you this year’s Evansville event! Mark your calendars for Wednesday, September 23, when we’ll gather in the Welborn Community Room for an evening of networking and insights.
We're honored to have Curt Begle, Chief Executive Officer of Magnera Corporation, as our featured speaker. Prior to leading Magnera, Curt spent his entire career at Berry Global, most recently serving as President of the company's $3.4 billion Health, Hygiene and Specialties Division. He played a pivotal role in creating Magnera through the carve-out and merger that established the company as a global leader in specialty materials and nonwovens.
