6th International Forum
on Environmental
Technologies:
Entering the Global
Remediation Marketplace
February 2-4,1998
The Adolphus Hotel
Dallas, Texas, USA
"In today's global arena the impetus for
cleaning up the environment is viewed in
terms of future economic benefit, rather
than the result of regulation...
governments and industry are acting accordingly.
"Forum Objectives -•-—.-
• Educate environmental and engineering firms on the
global marketplace
• Bring together financing agencies and banks with technology
companies and clients
• Provide direct contact with users and buyers of environmental
equipment and services
• Promote actual projects for technology firms
Targeting Key Sectors & Markets
By profiling global markets, a clear picture emerges for opportunities into the next
century based on common environmental challenges faced in specific manufacturing
sectors: energy, industry, and water. The Forum will present information on these
markets as well as promote discussion on critical marketing issues: targeting growth
markets; buying patterns for site assessment and remediation technologies; financing
international business opportunities; and participating in the privatization process of
government owned properties.
Who Should Attend
• Developers, Buyers and Users of Environmental Technologies
• Firms Interested in Entering the International Marketplace
• Consulting and Environmental Engineering Firms
• Financing Agencies
• Government Officials
