Sep 15, 2017

Registration is now open here for the 19th edition of European Paper Week 2017, November 28 -30 at the Radisson Blu Royal Hotel in Brussels, Belgium.

This year CEPI celebrates its 25th anniversary and to mark this occasion we will be holding a very special anniversary dinner at Brussels’ famous Royal Museum of Art and History. For the first time ever the Pulp and Paper International (PPI) Awards will also be held in conjunction with the anniversary dinner.

The theme this year ‘Sense the Future’ revolves around the five senses: sight, sound, smell, taste, and touch. Through various interactive exhibits you will be invited to discover new dimensions of what paper & the products beyond have to offer.

European Paper Week registrants will be treated to a unique ‘Sense the Future’ exhibition space where guests will be invited on a journey of discovery of several of the industry’s most innovative products.

For this year’s High-Level session CEPI will be joined by Gunther Pauli, a prolific TED speaker, serial entrepreneur and author of the renowned book ‘The Blue Economy’.

The full event programme can be consulted online here. This year’s agenda brings back a lot of the best that European Paper Week has to offer and plenty of new experiences including the first ever European edition of Blue Sky Young Researcher Awards and an ICFPA session focused on global industry challenges.
