The 2012 convention is expected to gather executives from around the world who are interested in a one-stop shop for business networking.

One of the highlights of the 2012 convention is the debut of ACIs CEO Panel. Among the executives slated to appear are Robert McDonald, chairman of the board, president and CEO of the Procter & Gamble Company; and Jeffrey P. Ansell, president and CEO of the Sun Products Corporation. The panel will be moderated by Alexis Glick, former vice president of Fox Business News. The executives will talk about the current and future state of the cleaning products industry and discuss the key challenges that lie ahead.
"Executives across the supply chain realize that ACI is where business gets done," says Ernie Rosenberg, ACI president and CEO. "Whether its surfactants or enzymes, fragrances or biocides, packaging or the finished product and everything in-between, ACIs Convention provides the best forum for business planning and networking."
