Inken Schoenauer Editor-in-chief |
Dear ipw reader,
Brussels sure goes through some tough times right now, just like whole Europe is. Nevertheless, the CEPI European Paper Week took place in Brussels. It was an impressive event for the pulp and paper industry. Marco Mensink and his team put together such an incredible three day event (see first news item below). ipw will review the Paper Week in the upcoming issue, even though highlights such as the presentation by Jeremy Rifkin, may be hard to capture if you do not witness him "live". To read CEPI's initiative for 2015, The Age of Fibre, click on the link at the end of the press release below. Wishing you a Happy Thanksgiving, your ipw team |
