For the third time, IFRA invites decision-makers from South-East Europe to its international newspaper forum on 25 and 26 September 2008 in Ljubljana, Slovenia (www.ifra.com/southeasteurope). Themed "Challenged Today, Successful Tomorrow", topics of this conference will be printed electronics, printing and workflow, pre-press, cost reduction, digital media and advertising.

On the day before the conference starts (24 September), participants will have the opportunity to visit the Savatech printing blanket plant, to gain a rare insight into the materials industry.
The conference in the Austria Trend Hotel Ljubljana will comprise four sessions - translated simultaneously into English, Slovenian and Croatian:
