Outreach

The Berne Union 2018 AGM kicks off tomorrow. Over 300 attendees - a record number - from BU members and guests will arrive in Paris over the next days and we are very excited in anticipation of the presentations and discussions.

Thematic discussions on topics including trade wars, sanctions, Brexit and the future of the EU await, as well as the launch of Berne Union statistics on Members' business results for the first half of 2018.

Follow our twitter feed @berneunion for live updates through the week, and post your comments on #BUParis18  

Thanks to hosts Bpifrance for their superb organisation. Safe travels to all and see you in Paris!
