Why attend?

Join industry friends, colleagues, competitors and many new faces as we host the 10th anniversary conference for the European office products industry. We are planning to celebrate 10 years of OPI conferences in Europe in style and we would like you to join us. This conference has been revised to celebrate this anniversary and to provide you with more relevant content and networking than ever before. This will be your most valuable time out of the office in 2008.

What's New? 

Due to your heavy schedules in June (and the football!), we have moved the event to May, which we hope will suit you better. We also hope that Rome will deliver great weather so we can enjoy some golf as a prelude to the conference!

For our 10th Anniversary we have also adapted the programme to suit your needs and introduced plenty of new sessions and ideas. Including:

More interactive sessions and better networking
Following your feedback we are introducing a range of new sessions to enable you to meet your peers and gain knowledge from your colleagues – many of whom are industry leaders. In a relaxed café-style setting we will introduce focused discussions and dialogue to smaller groups to help your exchange of knowledge. Don’t worry, there won’t be any standing up and feeding back to the whole group, but it will give you food for thought and enable you to widen your industry contacts in a way that regular networking can’t. You will find these sessions at the welcome party and on the first day of the conference.

Greater office products focus
At OPI Europe 2008 all the topics are focused strictly on the OP sector and on what the latest trends mean for us as an industry. Which ones do we need to focus on, which ones can we safely ignore? This is the only place where we do the hard work for you and show you what trends matter for OUR industry. 

In-depth analysis
There are fewer speakers on the programme this year to enable us to go into more depth. We have narrowed the amount of material we are trying to cover and focused our attention only on those trends that matter for the office products sector. 

Programme

We have compiled an extensive programme featuring experts from inside and outside of our industry to bring you the key trends in the office products sector, including:
 
•           What are the big consumer trends and how do they affect your business?

•           Why will technology be one of the biggest drivers of your business?

•           What will be the impact of the growth of sustainability?

•           How are Europe’s leading companies developing their businesses?

Find these answers and many more at OPI Europe 2008. There are plenty of opportunities out there and we will show you where to look!
