All topics and speaker/panellists are in place.

Brief bios and topics of the speakers and panelists have been confirmed however, there have been some exciting inclusions and developments.

Vancouver based Russell Taylor president of International WOOD MARKETS Group will join Geoff Manners to enable a session on Russia to be expanded from a presentation purely on timberland to incorporate investment in pure wood processing and integrated forestry/wood processing investment opportunities.

It is well know that one of the largest forest products companies, USA-International Paper has invested in an integrated forestry-wood processing business in Russia.

Both Taylor and Manners are recognised as global experts on the Russian timberland and wood processing/integrated investment situation and prospects.

These issues and many more will be discussed at the DANA meeting.

The DANA conference website includes details on the venue, accommodation, registration, sponsorship packages, previous newsletters and the full program.
