Spatec Europe gets underway today (9 June) at the Grande Real Santa Eulalia in Albufeira, Portugal.

Delegates from operating and supplier companies are meeting for a series of networking events and one-to-one meetings over the next two days, and the event kicks off with a welcome reception this evening.

Programming tomorrow begins with a keynote speech from Tracey Woodward, the new CEO of skincare brand Aromatherapy Associates, and is followed by a series of 20-minute meetings split across the next two days, with buyers and suppliers matched according to preference.

The event concludes on Friday evening with farewell drinks and dinner at the resort’s Restaurant Santa Eulalia.
