PolymerConnect is a data-driven platform led by the ATIM Cluster in partnership with the Northern Ireland Polymer Association (NIPA). It is designed to enhance the visibility, collaboration, and innovation of the polymer sector across the island of Ireland.

Funded by InterTradeIreland under the Synergy Programme, PolymerConnect supports both digital engagement—through networking tools, lead generation, and shared resources—and in-person interaction via curated events, workshops, and cross-border initiatives.

The platform empowers members to showcase their capabilities, connect with peers, and access opportunities that drive growth and competitiveness in the polymer and advanced manufacturing sectors.

The Connect dashboard within PolymerConnect provides a secure and trusted environment for members to engage meaningfully with peers across the polymer sector. It enables members to participate in thematic areas for discussion, allowing focused collaboration around key industry challenges, opportunities, and innovations. Through this feature, members can foster deeper dialogue, engage in peer learning, and build strategic partnerships and projects—all supported by PolymerConnect partners. Additionally, Connect ensures members stay informed by receiving notifications about opportunities for market growth, expansion, and relevant events tailored to their business needs.
