Latin America Day is a platform for exchange and interaction on issues pertinent to the Latin American market.

LP Gas stakeholders from right across the continent will present their perspectives and experiences to each other. We plan a full day of presentations from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm.

Three parallel streams will be organized in the morning and in the afternoon to have a common break and lunch, allowing delegates to move between streams as they wish.

These Latin American Day streams will provide invaluable insight for everyone involved in any aspect of the LP Gas business in Latin America. This is an event you cannot miss!
