In the 20 years history of the International Downstream Week – IDW, we have witnessed and shared the highs and lows of our ever-evolving industry, the challenges it has faced and overcome, as well as its many advancements and successes.
Flexibility and Adaptability are keywords for the industry nowadays. Being flexible and adaptable too and considering the uncertainty with the COVID-19 developments worldwide, we have decided to hold the 2021 edition virtually again, using our own advanced, tailormade, virtual event platform.
