United Kingdom is the 2020 EPTA president
From 1st of January, the Parliamentary Office of Science and Technology (POST) has assumed the EPTA presidency for 2020.
POST is a founding member and has held the EPTA Presidency in 2002 and 2009. We are glad to note that the impeding Brexit has no effect on the continued EPTA cooperation, EPTA being a European and global network with only indirect relations to the European Union. So the EPTA delegates are looking forward to meet twice this year in the UK to continue and intensify exchanges on salient matters of technology and innovation.
