Trondheim was the location for the 50th anniversary of Norske Spesialtrykkeres Forening last weekend. About 70 people gathered for this celebration held at the Rica Nidelven Hotel on the waterfront close to the harbour. The weather was glorious, the Norwegian hospitality fantastic and the event truly memorable.

The first FESPA Nordic Congress took place in Gothenburg on 7th and 8th April at the Gothia Towers hotel and 68 people were in attendance.
So the programme was devised to maximise opportunities to network with a mix of speakers to deliver topics on innovation, sustainability, business topics, future trends in printing, with a case study by a Swedish award winning textile printer as well as content from Volvo trucks explaining what they seek from their printers. Finally we ended with a presentation from our corporate sponsor HP. To round it all up we held a panel question and answer session.

On Wednesday this week the Projects committee considered a number or new projects and agreed the following:

In Slovenia we shall be supporting an environmental seminar in November which will focus on environmental issues for the SEE (South East Europe) region. This high profile event will be held in Ljubljana wth live streaming to audiences elsewhere using webinar technology. Part of the programme includes translation of the Planet Friendly Guide into Slovenian language for distribution to members of Slovenian Association.

Below is an example of the co-operation between Slovak and French Associations in Paris last year. Following the success of this meeting, a reciprocal visit was made by French representatives to Slovakia. Now, because of the success of this relationship, a further meeting will be taking place in Marseille in October (21st to 23rd) where both Associations will meet, discuss ways in which they can develop their working relationships,  make some factory visits, network  and relax with a little sightseeing and a couple of meals.
