Description

Openness, collaboration and sharing of information in developing the basic underlying, precompetitive science and technology for areas of emerging importance to the forest products sectors of the US and Finland are expected to provide synergistic benefits and allow for more creative problem solving. There appear to be a number of common interests with respect to developing the underlying science and technology needed to reinvent and reinvigorate the Finnish and US forest products industry in the 21st Century.
