RISE® 2027 in Kansas City: book your hotel nearby

RISE® 2027 is the annual conference organized by INDA, the Association of the Nonwovens Fabrics Industry, focused on research, innovation and science across technical fabrics and engineered materials. The 2027 edition takes place March 23–25 at the Kansas City Convention Center, bringing together researchers, product developers and industry leaders. The program explores the intersection of nonwovens materials and sustainability, covering biobased materials, extended-life products, circular design and responsible production. Sessions are designed to help professionals anticipate regulation and adopt the technologies their customers are already demanding. Beyond the conference stage, attendees use RISE to connect with decision-makers across the supply chain, from raw materials and converting to packaging and machinery. It is a focused, working event rather than a large trade floor, ideal for teams scouting partners and ideas before the next big expo cycle. If you are traveling in for RISE, booking a hotel close to the Kansas City Convention Center keeps you within walking distance of the sessions and evening networking.
