Global Technology Conference

After the great success of the first edition held in Chicago in 2006, the 2nd Global Technology Conference (GTC) will be jointly organized by the World LP Gas Association together with the Korean LP Gas Association and will take place in conjunction with the Forum.

GLOBAL TECHNOLOGY CONFERENCE - FRIDAY 26th SEPTEMBER 2008

The Global Technology Conference (GTC) brings together the best and brightest in our industry from across the world! We plan a full day featuring nearly 50 experts who will present in three parallel streams covering: Global Autogas Developments; Operations Technology and Applications Innovation.
The sessions in each of these parallel streams will be organised to have common networking breaks and lunch, allowing delegates to move between streams as they wish.
The streams will provide invaluable insights for everyone involved in any aspect of the LP Gas business from all parts of the world. This is an event that simply must not be missed!
