​Call For Presentations

Navigating Global Challenges

​On behalf of the Program Committee for the 2021 PACWEST Conference, I invite you to submit your interest in presenting a technical presentation at the conference.  The final selection of presentations will be based on several criteria including originality, technical and mill relevance, and support of the chosen theme.  At this time, we request that you submit; the title of the presentation and abstract/summary, authors name(s), their affiliation and contact information.

We ask that you commit to participate in the conference by March 31, 2021. You will be advised at the end of March if your submission has been accepted for presentation at the PACWEST Virtual Conference 2021, along with rules for format, quality of material, length and rights.  There is no need to submit a complete presentation until further advised.

All presentations and their contents will be judged, with awards in a number of categories: 
  • Best Technical Presentation (Mill Paper) - HR MacMillan Trophy
  • Runner-Up for full length presentation (open to Consultants and Researchers)
  • Best Supplier Presentation

Please note that the time limit for presentations is 20 minutes, with an additional 5 minutes for questions and answers.
