The International Forest Products Transport Association PPI Transport Symposium 18 is to take place in Liverpool on October 7-9, 2009.

The event will include a conference, exhibition and tour of the Port of Liverpool, and is aimed at providing an “effective educational and professional enhancement vehicle”.

“I would like to see our delegates take away from the symposium some really good ideas that they can immediately apply to their tasks when they get home,” said George Hudson, chairman of the symposium conference.

“The aim is to create a conference programme that addresses real-world issues and serves as an effective educational and professional enhancement vehicle.”
