Prince George, B.C. – Innovation in the forest industry is the focus of a conference at the University of Northern British Columbia this week. It includes the participation of researchers, industry, and government leaders. “The goal is to get the conversations going between industry and research and government to some extent about where can we take forest research to the benefit of our communities,” said Dr. Kathy Lewis, chair of the UNBC Ecosystem Science and Management Program. She added Canada needs to play catch up in order to avoid falling further behind other countries when it comes to technological advances, for instance the Chinese.
