CELEBRATING INNOVATION AND ADVANCEMENTS IN FORESTRY
Fast & Forward Forestry Expo is a chance for our equipment providers to get in front of our contractors, forest owners and forest professionals to demonstrate the advancements in technology and mechanisation.
There are plenty of innovations from an international reach and conceptual perspective, that we totally under-estimate. It is also an opportunity to demonstrate the industry, services, advancements, people and career pathways to the general public. Bringing together successful brands, initiatives, innovative organisations, and contributors to the success of forestry in NZ, the Fast & Forward Forestry Expo is open to everyone.
