Who is this conference for?
For managing directors, department heads, R&D managers, production managers, QM representatives, regulatory affairs managers, buyers, sales representatives as well as engineers from the paper manufacturing and processing industry and their suppliers, the symposium offers an ideal opportunity for knowledge exchange and trend scouting.
The PTS team led by Dr. Martin Zahel and Ina Greiffenberg is looking forward to very knowledgeable conference participants and an exciting lecture programme. Networking opportunities and personal exchange had to be foregone for a long time - and so this attendance event, break discussions, discussion rounds and the joint dinner offer many opportunities to strengthen personal contacts and cooperation.
