MUSCAT -- The Sixth Annual GPCA Forum of the Gulf Petrochemicals and Chemicals Association (GPCA) will take place at the Atlantis, The Palm, Dubai from December 13-15, 2011.
The petrochemical industry continues to recover from the global recession and following on from last year's successful event, which attracted over 1,300 delegates, this year's theme will be 'Moving Downstream -- Creating Added Value and Sustainable Growth'.
Having capitalised on feedstock advantage, GPCA member companies in the coming decade will be challenged to capture further, sustainable value creating opportunities.
"The GPCA Annual Forum remains a key date in the industry diary, providing attendees with a fantastic opportunity to access and network with industry leaders and decision-makers, and gain the latest market intelligence. At this early stage the programme has already attracted top-level speakers from leading chemical companies and we expect the 2011 Forum to be the most successful yet" said Dr Abdulwahab al Sadoun, Secretary-General, GPCA.
Over three days, delegates attending the Forum will benefit from unparalleled networking opportunities and hear from top-level speakers including: Mohammed al Mady, Chairman, GPCA; Vice Chairman and CEO, Sabic; Hamad Rashid al Mohannadi, Deputy Chairman, Qatar Petroleum; Jim Gallogly, CEO, LyondellBasell; Peter L Cella, CEO, Chevron Phillips; Tom Crotty, Chairman, Ineos ChlorVinyls; Luther C Kissams IV, President, Albemarle Corporation; and Dr Fahad al Mubarak, Chairman and Managing Director, Morgan Stanley Saudi Arabia. Year on year the Forum sees significant increases in attendance and it is now the largest gathering of petrochemical leaders and decision-makers in the Middle East.
