RISI Announces New Event Partnership with CEPI
RISI, the leading information provider for the global forest products industry, today announced a new event partnership with the Confederation of European Paper Industries (CEPI). The agreement will enhance the programme for both RISI's 2015 European Conference and CEPI's European Paper Week. It also provides discounts for CEPI members to enable them to attend both events.
"RISI and CEPI share a long history of serving the needs of the European paper industry. This agreement will allow us to combine our resources and provide critical information to those operating in this market. Both events will present critical information to help our clients and constituents navigate these troubling economic times," said Iain Murray, Vice President of Conference Services at RISI.
As part of the new agreement, RISI economists will present at CEPI's European Paper Week and speak on market trends, challenges and opportunities in the European pulp and paper market. In turn, CEPI will provide commission updates and Marco Mensink, Director General of CEPI will present on "A Survival Guide to Europe." This presentation will discuss the current issues in Europe affecting the European pulp and paper industry.
RISI's European conference will take place from March 9-11 in Amsterdam, Netherlands at the Hilton Amsterdam Hotel. The European Paper Week will take place 17-19 November 2015 in Brussels, Belgium. More details will be available at www.cepi.org/epw at a later stage.
