An opportunity to grill key figures in the industry will present itself at the American Hardwood Export Council‘s (AHEC) 11th convention to be held in Hamburg on October 22-24.
The BBC‘s Question Time formula will be adopted on October 23 when a panel of timber experts from across Europe will be in the hot seat. Each will give their answers to the same questions on a range of subjects including the European hardwood market.
AHEC European director David Venables said: “No event like this should remain static, either in location or style. We anticipate that the introduction of ‘Question Time’ will be a great contribution to the convention this year, without altering the underlying aim of reporting current market issues and facilitating networking on a business to business level.”
