Forest-Based Industry Conference

CEI-Bois, CEPF, and CEPI are pleased to invite you to attend the second event organised jointly by the entire forest chain "Forest products industry - a natural value"

The event will bring the three key players in the forest value chain: the Confederation of European Forest Owners (CEPF), the wood working industries (CEI-Bois) and the Confederation of European Paper Industries (CEPI) to reflect on the business perspectives of the sector, and discuss how a "business as usual" approach must match the unprecedented economic downturn the sector is operating in.

It will take place on 19 November 2009 at 14.00 in the Marivaux Hotel in Brussels and is designed to show how European authorities and the industry can work together to build a prosperous forest-based sector for the future that is recognised as modern, sustainable and forward-looking by society.

The programme features speakers from the European Parliament, FAO, IIASA and Forest Value Investment Management.

Kind regards,

Filip De Jaeger CEI-Bois Secretary General	Morten Thoroe CEPF Secretary General	Teresa Presas CEPI Managing Director
