Several leaders from Invista joined the ceremonies, including Invista’s President and CEO, Brook Vickery, who said, “Touring the world-class R&D facilities at the Texas Technology Center today was impressive. The capability we now have under one roof in Texas will accelerate the teams’ contributions to advancing our businesses. I just visited our Asia Innovation Center in Shanghai earlier this year, and the world-class facilities we now have on both sides of the globe have me even more excited about the discoveries and developments our teams are making that will respond to our customers’ needs and drive innovation in our industry.”
