Scottish Waste and Resources Conference 2008

Scottish Waste and Resources Conference 2008

Creating a Zero Waste Scotland

Formerly known as Eventful Scotland, the newly rebranded Scottish Waste & Resources Conference will host the annual 2-day conference, exhibition and awards dinner on 7th and 8th October 2008.

As the title suggests, this partnership event is not exclusive to those working in the waste management industry. At this crucial time in our future development we must engage with the wider resources management sectors.

The conference programme for 2008 features the overall theme of “zero waste” closely linked with carbon, energy and planning. A tried and tested format for the event will provide delegates with a pick-and-mix choice of sessions, an indoor exhibition, awards and industry dinner. There will be parallel sessions running throughout the programme with some of the main themed sessions repeated, to ensure no-one misses out.

The successful and enhanced indoor exhibition, together with other sponsored sessions, will allow you to meet and discuss your requirements with waste/reprocessing companies and suppliers and provide the ideal networking opportunity.

Whether you have been before or not, the event promises to be one not to be missed. It is a one-stop shop for you, your organisation and your colleagues and an event that will keep you ahead of the critical factors infl uencing our industry.
