Fespa has announced the straplines for its Global Print Expo and associated shows in Amsterdam next spring (19- March 2024, RAI Exhibition Centre) and put meat on the bones of some of the visitor features.
Fespa Global Print Expo will run with the banner ‘Opportunities, Revealed’, the Personalisation Experience with ‘Opportunities, Reimagined’, European Sign Expo with ‘Opportunities, Illuminated’, and the inaugural Sportswear Pro with ‘Opportunities, Created’.
Michael Ryan, head of Fespa Global Print Expo, said: “This year, we’re introducing a set of new event straplines which represent a natural progression from the 2023 events where we encouraged visitors to discover ‘New Perspectives’. In our constantly evolving speciality print industry, the possibilities and opportunities are endless and we’re excited to welcome an array of suppliers to highlight their latest, innovative solutions.”
The 2024 events will again host conferences. Day one will be dedicated to the Personalisation Experience, offering content from industry experts on the commercial value of personalisation. Day two of the conference will be aligned with Sportswear Pro and focus on the opportunities in sports and leisure garment production and decoration. The full line-up of speakers will be confirmed closer to the event.
A ‘Personalise Make Wear’ feature will run as part of Personalisation Experience and Sportswear Pro, offering visitors the opportunity to join expert-guided end-to-end production tours of the latest technologies for sportswear garment make-up and personalisation of sport-related merchandise. It will also feature fireside chats focussed on the latest technologies and processes.
The ‘Sustainability Spotlight’ materials showcase is set to return in 2024, offering visitors a chance to learn more about sustainable material alternatives and how to improve their environmental performance and credentials.
World Wrap Masters is also back. Over the first two days, European vehicle wrappers will compete for the title of Wrap Master Europe 2024, followed by a series final where regional wrap masters will go head-to -head for the title of ‘World Wrap Master 2024’. Alongside the competition, visitors can benefit from live demonstrations with industry experts.
Dedicated websites for Fespa Global Print Expo, European Sign Expo, Personalisation Experience and Sportswear Pro are now live. Registration for the events will open at the beginning of December and visitors can benefit from super early bird tickets to all four events for 25 Euro.
