The American Forest & Paper Association (AF&PA) and the NPTA Alliance (NPTA) are joining forces to host a combined conference March 21-23, 2010 in New York City, called PAPER2010.

The conference will merge what was formerly known as AF&PA’s Paper Week and NPTA’s Annual Convention. The event will be held at the Waldorf- Astoria Hotel and Towers in New York City.

The AF&PA is the national trade association of the forest products industry, representing pulp, paper, and wood products manufacturers, and forest landowners. The NPTA Alliance (formerly the National Paper Trade Association, Inc.) is the association for the $60+ billion paper, packaging and supplies distribution industry.

Both organizations have many members in common as well as other constituents who benefit from participation in both association events. Program details, events and speakers will be announced soon.
