Mt Wood Products at the Asian Pacific Economic Conference |
| Summary: |
The Montana Wood Products Association was part of a Montana Products Showcase at the recent Asia-Pacific Economic Conference (APEC) held at the Big Sky Resort, near Bozeman. This major trade meeting was organized by the U.S. State Department and was attended by hundreds of delegates from the Pacific Rim countries. Montana State University Extension organized the display, which was staffed by Deborah Nash, of MSU’s Montana Manufacturing Extension Center.
The Products Showcase garnered plenty of attention from the delegates, which will, hopefully, turn into some commercial orders for Montana made wood products’ companies. If this, or other showcase opportunities arise again, MWPA should make every effort to be involved in the future
