<Title>Sponsor Spotlights: DSM-Firmenich</Title>
<Tagline>AIChE Mid-Atlantic Regional Conference Sponsors</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content"><span><p><span>DSM-Firmenich, a collaboration between DSM and Firmenich, marries innovation and tradition. Stemming from DSM's roots dating back to 1869, when Jacques van Marken founded the world's first commercial yeast production, and Firmenich's inception in 1895 with chemist Philippe Chuit and entrepreneur Martin Naef, the venture inherits a legacy of pioneering spirit and creative excellence.</span></p>
    <p><span>DSM's acquisition of Gist- en Spiritusfabriek in 1998 marked a strategic shift towards specialty food ingredient production, while Firmenich's evolution into the world's largest privately-owned fragrance and taste company underscored its commitment to quality and innovation.</span></p>
    <p><span>Today, DSM-Firmenich stands at the forefront of biotechnology-driven innovation in the flavor and fragrance industry. With DSM's expertise in biotechnology and Firmenich's leadership in scent molecules, the venture is poised to continue its legacy of transformative impact, delivering sustainable and natural solutions to global markets.</span></p>
    <br><p><span>For the 2024 AIChE Mid-Atlantic Regional Conference, we are delighted to have DSM-Firmenich as a silver level sponsor. They have also graciously agreed to participate in our Career Fair, where they will share the many wonderful opportunities they offer in the biotechnology industry. We would like to thank DSM-firmenich for their contributions, and we look forward to welcoming them to campus this April!</span></p>

    <div>UMBC Professor <a href="https://laramartin.net/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo"><strong>Lara Martin</strong></a> is one of the organizers of the <a href="https://wordplay-workshop.github.io/modern/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo"><strong>Wordplay: When Language Meets Games</strong></a> workshop, which will be held at the annual Association of Computational Linguistics conference in Bangkok, Thailand, on August 16, 2024.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>The workshop will focus on exploring the utility of interactive narratives, think everything from classic text-adventures like <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zork" rel="nofollow external" class="bo"><strong>Zork</strong></a> to modern <a href="https://twinery.org/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo"><strong>Twine</strong></a> games, to fill a role as the learning environments of choice for language-based tasks including but not limited to storytelling. Previous iterations of this workshop took place successfully, with hundreds of attendees at NeurIPS 2018, NeurIPS 2020, and NAACL 2022. Since then, the community of people working in this area has rapidly increased. </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>This workshop aims to be a centralized place where all researchers involved across many fields can interact and learn from each other. Furthermore, it will act as a showcase to the broader NLP/RL/Game communities on interactive narrative’s place as a learning environment. The program will feature a collection of invited talks in addition to contributed talks and posters from each of these sections of the interactive narrative community and the wider natural language processing and reinforcement learning communities.</div>
