PCI’s Editorial Advisory Board (EAB) helps our staff to further develop the editorial direction of our magazine. EAB members share information on industry trends and new technologies, offer suggestions for new content that can better serve our readers, review and score the abstracts that are submitted each year for our Coatings Trends & Technologies Summit, moderate at the event, write articles for publication in our magazine or on our website, and advise on technical questions.
