From September 6 to 8 at the Palais des Congrès Gerard Gastinel- Digne les Bains
Two events come together for a unique affair
Organized by the Association for the Promotion of Aromatic and Medicinal Plants (APPAM), the “International Days of Essential Oils and Extracts” of Digne-les-Bains aim to bring together producers, scientists, technicians, and users of essential oils to discuss the latest agricultural, scientific, technological, analytical, and regulatory advances.
Organized by the Competitiveness Cluster for Perfumes, Aromas, Scents, and Flavors, the International Congress on Aromatic and Medicinal Plants (PAM) aims to develop exchanges between professionals in the aromatic industry on both sides of the Mediterranean.
In addition to the scientific conferences, there are also training workshops and B2B meetings.
The first edition took place in 2009 in Morocco, and the second edition in 2010 in Tunisia.
For these two events, the 2011 edition holds a special dimension: it celebrates the 30th anniversary of the first, and the second will see the realization of an “International Federation of Aromatic and Medicinal Plants.”
