The APF Exhibition is the UK’s largest forestry, woodland, arboriculture, firewood, fencing, trees and timber trade show. It attracts over 320 exhibitors and 23,000 visitors.
The myForest team were delighted to be asked to speak in the ConFor tent for a talk titled ‘Linking the wood-chain through collaboration and technology’. Paul Orsi (Director of Operations at Sylva Foundation) spoke alongside Rossanna Cunningham from the Northwoods Innovation Programme and Hester Robertston from CloudForest.
Together Paul, Rosanna and Hester talked about how their work separately on innovation was supporting more woodlands into management but more importantly how their collaboration across technology was bigger than the sum of the parts. Paul highlighted the work that the myForest team had done over the last year to support woodland owners and managers to collect and calculate woodland inventory information in myForest. He also highlighted some of the development work that is ongoing at the moment including trialling a direct link from myForest to create a sale listing in the CloudForest marketplace to allow owners and managers to market their timber more easily and effectively.
Watch this space over the coming months and release new functionality in myForest based on some fantastic collaboration.
