Description:
ITALIAN PV SUMMIT - 3rd EDITION
The third edition of the ITALIAN PV SUMMIT will be held in 2011 in the days immediately before Solarexpo to set the stage for the trade fair. Thanks to the distinctly international nature of the speakers and participants at the two previous editions, the ITALIAN PV SUMMIT has established itself as one of the top conferences for the photovoltaic sector.
The ITALIAN PV SUMMIT covers the full range of technical, regulatory, economic and financial content and places special emphasis on the current state of the Italian and international markets.
The ITALIAN PV SUMMIT is a conference that lays the ground for Solarexpo each year. Industry players consider it a must-attend event – both for the information on hand and for the business intelligence it provides – for anyone wanting to get ahead in the photovoltaic business.
The ITALIAN PV SUMMIT 2011’s target groups:
- project developers, brokers & consultancies
