Experts meet to discuss joint EU action on environmental technologies

To achieve this, the conference will try to identify promising technologies, barriers and action points, paying particular attention to the Commission's goal of setting up an environmental technology action plan (ETAP) by the end of 2003.
The event is being organised by Austrian government and the Austrian Federation of industry, with the support of the Greek EU presidency.
