International Forest Business Conference
Date(s):
December 7 — 9, 2020
Event Details: International Forest Business Conference 2020 New Forest Business Frontiers A greater demand for energy, volatility in the fossil fuel markets and increasing material resource scarcity are considered as the most significant sustainability mega forces shaping European and global wood industry markets over the next 15 years. Together with unstable consumer demand, uncertain policies and indifference among regulators, the forest and wood industry have never experienced such significant barriers to advancing sustainability and profitability. The goal of the International Forest Business Conference 2020 (#IFBC2020) is to focus on megatrends that shape forest and wood industry sectors, highlight the transformation of forest-related businesses towards a low-carbon bioeconomy, discuss tensions between sustainability and cost competitiveness, and call attention to new green innovations.
The conference aims to bring together leading timberland investment management organizations, private and public forest owners, investors interested in forestry as an asset class, investment analysts, wood industry and forest certification representatives in order to exchange and share their experiences and ideas about challenges and opportunities that the forest sector will face in the coming years.
