At CEPE, we know how to celebrate good news when we see some. The Draghi report is a case in point.

It is a wake-up call regarding our need for a robust industrial strategy. As outlined by the Antwerp Declaration, competitiveness should now rank as the EU’s top priority.

CEPE takes note that some of the conclusions echo some of the paints, printing inks and artists’ colours own concerns. As CEPE we believe it is time to harness innovation, rather than hinder it!

The CEPE Annual conference’s registrations are now open!
