This year's edition, which is now open for registration, will again take place at the Fira Palace Hotel, Barcelona, Spain, from 7-9 March 2012.

The Technical Seminar is targeted at all levels of the technical community from R&D or production to technical and operational directors in the self-adhesive label industry. This year's program brings a mix of international speakers and topics related to the developments and trends in the technology, in changing market use, and environmental issues.

‘We are pleased and take pride in being able to celebrate the 20th edition of Finat's Technical Seminar this year,’ said Kurt Walker, Finat president. ‘It demonstrates our members' continued need for updates on our industry that can help them in making their business stronger and more professional.’

On March 9, during the Technical Seminar, Finat’s Young Managers Club (YMC) meets for an informative session on ‘How to effectively communicate innovations to customers’.

‘The Technical Seminar offers us a perfect “back-to-back” opportunity to bring together the incoming generation of business leaders. The seminar itself covers the technology of the future for our sector, our session will cover another angle of business innovation,’ said Francesc Egea, of IPE Innovaciones Para Etiquetajes, Spain, and chairman of YMC.
