XXX IULTCS Congress
Oct. 11-14, 2009
Beijing, China

 
INVITATION TO THE 30th IULTCS CONGRESS ¨C BEIJING, CHINA

There is much significance surrounding the upcoming 30th IULTCS Global Congress that will be held in China in 2009. This Congress will commemorate the 60th anniversary of the first IULTCS Global Congress that was held in Paris in 1949. During the 110-year history of the Union, this is only the second time that an IULTCS Congress will be held in Asia, and the first time in China. Today, China is a global leader in the production of leather, and her scientists and technicians make significant contributions toward the research and development of new technologies for leather manufacture.

So it is with much interest and anticipation that the IULTCS Executive Committee, and the global leather community that it represents, have accepted the invitation of the China Leather Industry Association (CLIA) to meet in Beijing. The IULTCS Global Congress is the showcase for leading scientists to present the research and ideas that mould our thinking and shape the technology of our industry. I am sure that the event planned for 2009 will add another successful chapter to this history.

Therefore, on behalf of the IUTLCS Executive Committee and in cooperation with the CLIA Organizing Committee, it gives me great pleasure to invite you to attend the 30th International IULTCS Congress to be held in Beijing in October 2009.


Elton Hurlow
President of the IULTCS
