Global Cement LIVE weekly webinar - Currently retired!
Global Cement LIVE took place during the global Covid Pandemic - and we hope that it won't need to be back any time soon!
Thursdays during the coronavirus pandemic: 14:00 CET (Berlin, Paris, Rome)
Next edition: To be confirmed*
*After 56 editions of Global Cement Live, and as the global Coronavirus pandemic starts to abate, we are 'retiring' Global Cement Live for the time being. It was great while it lasted! We are very proud of our series of live broadcasts, which seemed to keep a real community of cement professionals going through the worst of the Pandemic, and we would most especially like to thank our fantastic guest presenters for their efforts. Remember, stay safe, be good, and if you can't be good, don't get caught! - Rob
