Fespa Digital 2016 in Amsterdam, 8-11 March 2016, will be the tenth anniversary of the digital print-focused exhibition, and will cover the largest floor space of any event in the show’s history, with 450 exhibitors occupying 42,000m2 over seven halls at the RAI Exhibition Centre, representing growth of 159% from the very first edition in 2006.
Roz McGuinness, divisional director, Fespa, said: “The market for digital wide-format production technologies and the scope of digital applications has developed far beyond the expectations that existed a decade ago, and the market’s evolution continues, as the growth and diversification of the event and its visitor audience testifies.”
New exhibitors continue to join the Fespa Digital line-up, including in 2016 Ricoh, AT Graphix, ATS Colore Digital, CWT Tools, Ex-cel Plastics, FH-Union UK, Impronta Gadget, Luscher Tschudi, Provis and Pals Print.
The co-located European Sign Expo 2016 has nearly doubled in floor space since its inaugural edition in 2013, covering 1800m2 to date. Fespa said that in the last three months, there has been a 48% increase in the number of companies signing up to showcase their products.
