The ninth International Forestry Conference ”Kupres – Modernization of Forestry in Bosnia and Herzegovina” organized by the ”Herceg-Bosnian forests” and the Croatian Wood Cluster took place on March 21 and 22, 2024 and gathered numerous regional and European experts in the field of forestry and wood processing. Numerous European topics and high-ranking guests from Brussels gave this professional event a distinct European note. It was also the largest professional meeting in Bosnia and Herzegovina, where the International Day of Forests (March 21) was marked.

Considering the very intense changes taking place on the global market after the pandemic and due to the war in Europe and the Middle East, the main topic of this year’s meeting was ”Global impact on prices and the market”. Since the market for wood products has experienced a certain degree of stagnation in the last six months, a large part of the discussion has focused on predicting future market trends, because forestry can hardly be successful if the wood industry is not successful or suffers serious financial losses.

The company ”NIGOS-elektronik” participated in the conference for the second time, as a sponsor, which shows our readiness to keep up with new information and create a basis for further cooperation and improvement of our business by looking at challenges and opportunities and exchanging ideas and experience with experts from the region and the EU.
Miljan Nikolić, CEO of the company, held a five-minute presentation ”Digitalization in the wood drying process”.
