    Thrive through Turbulence

    For decades, stability has allowed our industry to plan with confidence. Today, the ground is constantly shifting - geopolitical shocks, volatile energy markets, lack of investment, talent shortage and the accelerating push for sustainability have created unprecedented complexity. Add to this the increasing pressure of deindustrialization in Europe, and companies find themselves in a "management pressure cooker" where short-term urgencies collide with long-term requirements, requiring constant recalibration.

    At the 59th Annual Meeting, we will explore how businesses can thrive in turbulent times by embedding agilityresilience, and reinvention into their core strategies. From navigating geopolitical challenges and regulatory shifts, to rethinking supply chain resilience and accelerating sustainable solutions, leaders must adopt a dynamic approach to stay ahead.

    Join us at EPCA’s 59th Annual Meeting, where industry leaders will chart the path forward. Engage with over 2,500 professionals from 100+ companies, gain insights from global experts, and help shape a future where Europe’s petrochemical industry remains competitive, secure, and at the forefront of global innovation.

     

    Program

    EPCA's Annual Meeting theme "Thrive through Turbulence" aims to create a dialogue between all stakeholders to explore crucial topics for the petrochemical sector. The program has a diverse range of topics and renowned speakers lined up for each day.

    Sustainability

    Sustainability practices at #EPCA59

    Climate change is not a myth and natural resources are finite. Responsible consumption and production are at the core of the UN’s SDG 12. At EPCA we want to contribute to a clean future by choosing whenever possible sustainable and green venues, suppliers and products. SDG 12 goes hand in hand with SDG 13, which is a call to take immediate action to combat climate change and its impact. As we know that the Annual Meeting has a significant impact on the environment, this is also where we can make the biggest difference. Here’s what we do to support this goal:

    Avoid unnecessary use and distribution of paper collaterals

    Materials and waste: Whether printed or digital, all communication has an impact. The collateral produced for an event is an important contributor to its environmental footprint. The flyers, banners and other needed communications have an impact that depends on their volumes, materials used, finish and format. Furthermore, promotional material, in various forms by company members and different publications, that were frequently distributed at EPCA's Annual Meeting. This has an environmental footprint in its production phase and contributed to the event’s waste, since a big portion (80%+) of this was discarded at former EPCA events.

    Offsetting our carbon footprint

    EPCA plants trees in partnership with activities in the destination or by supporting WeForest to offset the carbon footprint of our activities. WeForest restores threatened forests and landscapes in tropical regions and biodiversity hotspots. Their focus is the well-being of the communities where they work.

    Efforts related to the venue and F&B

    Reducing food waste, water and energy consumption; encouraging the recycling of materials post-event.  

    Stimulate the EPCA community to take action

    We ask our attendees, partners and sponsors to make conscious choices when it comes to transport, travel, collaterals, food, water and electricity consumption.
