6th Conference of the European Industrial Hemp Association (EIHA)
The EIHA Conference established itself as an expert meeting of the natural fibre branch in Europe and also world-wide. Experts from all over the world will meet each other in order to exchange information about the latest developments concerning hemp and other natural fibres. The spectrum of participants will range from cultivation consultants, primary and further processors, traders, mechanical engineers and investors to numerous small and medium-sized enterprises and to globally operating automotive enterprises and suppliers. They all share common interest in the utilisation of hemp fibres and shives. The conference language will be English.
We expect an increased number of participants because of more EIHA members and the context of the International Year of Natural Fibres 2009.
