The Conference Director Chairman is William C (Bill) Smith, Principal, Industrial Textile Associates, USA, who originated and developed the conference series. Since 2010 International Newsletters Ltd, the world's premier supplier of information about the industrial and high-performance use of textiles and nonwovens, has run this event with successful meetings in Cannes, France; Orlando, FL, USA; Valencia, Spain and Prague, Czech Republic.

Very different from an academic research meeting, TCL is a venue for practical presentations focussing on what is happening in the industry today and what will happen tomorrow. Supplemented by intensive discussion sessions actively led by the session chairs, TCL is the meeting place for senior managerial, technical and marketing staff from the international coating and laminating industry.
