Working programme

Main theme

Europe, the main player in the changes that influence our businesses today and tomorrow.

 

Future directives, standards and rules which will influence our business

During the General Assembly in Brussels in 2008 we shall try to find out what are the most important changes that will affect our business in the coming years. These changes can be the result of new directives, reviews of existing directives, new standards, changes in the political views and so on.

We will start with:

• the upcoming directives or transpositions in national laws,
• the changes in standardisation,
• the main political changes.

Europe, the main player in the changes that influence our business today and tomorrow

What are:

• the opportunities,
• the threats to our business?

How do professionals who are not in our business see this? A debate to clarify these issues.

After that we have an idea of what is coming we shall convert this knowledge in business opportunities and threats.

We can imagine different players on the market have different views on that. For that reason we shall organize a debate between manufacturers and wholesalers trying to find a common view or at least a better understanding of the elements that motivate the differences.

 

A new formula

For the organizational part of the GA in Brussels we propose a new formula:

• It will take only one day (not shorter but more condensed).
• It will be cheaper and more efficient.
• It will be mainly professional oriented.

Our main goals are to give you good opportunities to meet other people from your business in an informal way and to provide you with useful information for your business.
