European nonwovens trade body, EDANA will organise the Turkish Nonwovens Symposium in Istanbul on November 10 and 11, 2015.

The symposium, the second of its kind to be held in Turkey, will focus on Turkey and its key trading regions, including Europe and the Middle East.

“The symposium is designed to bring together key players within the nonwovens and related industries, providing an environment for delegates to both attend sessions with renowned business consultants and authoritative industry speakers,” EDANA said

It added, “It will also engage their business partners in the various formal and informal networking opportunities offered throughout the event.”

“We are returning with our successful symposia to Turkey, to bring together the local and international nonwovens and related industries,” Pierre Wiertz, general manager at EDANA said.

“Turkey sits at the crossroads of Europe and Asia, and has strong ties to the Middle East, giving local businesses and companies with Turkish representation an advantage in doing business with these critical regions,” he too added.

Table top exhibition space will also be offered to enable companies to establish new business contacts, promote their brand to a global audience, launch and demonstrate new technologies, products and services.

“The advantages of Istanbul as a crossroads between Europe and Asia and a cost-effective and central location for delegates, was seen as a critical element to attract the industry’s key representatives,” EDANA noted.

EDANA has invited industry experts to submit their proposed presentation topics for consideration until May 4, 2015.

According to EDANA, submissions should include the title, 4-5 bullet points outlining the presentation, and name of the proposed speaker. (AR)
