2nd Annual CEE Chemical and Petrochemical Industry Forum 2003

Prague/Budapest: A new flagship marcus evans conference entitled “2nd Annual CEE Chemical and Petrochemical Industry Forum 2003”, 18th & 19th February 2003, Budapest. The event will feature a senior representative from International Energy Agency and The Vienna Institute for International Economic Studies and mostly speakers from leading petrochemical and chemical companies based in Central and Eastern Europe such as MOL, TVK, PKN Orlen, SNP Petrom and on the other hand also SABIC EuroPetrochemicals, Petkim Petrochemical Holding Co. and Lukoil Neftekhem.

It is evident that the implications of EU Accession and the wave of privatisation tenders and acquisitions will be far-reaching and changes are inevitable. This conference will provide a platform for the chemical and petrochemical industry professionals, traders and global financial institutions to discuss the market development of chemical products and market segments. Participants will assess the opportunities for production, trade and acquisitions, the current and future role of CEE based companies and Russian majors expanding into central Europe and last, but not the least address the key issues surrounding the consolidation of the regional chemical and petrochemical sector.
