DOWNSTREAM LANDSCAPE TRANSFORMATION
Belgrade, 17 September 2018
Dear colleagues,
It is with pleasure that we invite you to participate in the 2018 Tomorrow’s Leaders Symposium to be hosted in Belgrade on 17 September 2018 by the National Petroleum Committee of Serbia – World Petroleum Council (NNKS-WPC).
The Tomorrow’s Leaders Symposium is an event series organized under the auspices of the World Petroleum Council targeting young professionals active in the oil and gas industry. It was established as a forum to exchange views and reflect on the industry challenges among different generations in the petroleum industry stakeholder network. The event series was launched in London in 2014 and was followed by a Budapest event in 2015, both attended by 100+ participants from over 15 WPC member countries.
For this year’s Symposium, the National Petroleum Committee of Serbia is looking forward to welcoming young professionals from both technical and non-technical backgrounds to expand and exchange their understanding of today’s downstream landscape as focal topic of this year’s symposium.
The one-day Symposium programme, developed in close cooperation and with support of the WPC Young Professionals Committee, will be delivered in four panel sessions:
- An overview of downstream energy landscape
- The use of technology in transforming the oil and gas industry
- Closing the generation gap in the oil and gas industry
- The influence of the oil and gas industry from different stakeholder perspectives
Registration for the event is free of charge and compulsory. However, due to limited space, applications will be accepted on a first-come-first-served basis. Registrations will be open until 10 September, but will close when the maximum number of participants is reached.
