The digital platform drupa preview will present a conference programme showcasing the printing industry’s hot topics one more time on February 23, 2021 before making way for the inaugural virtual.drupa in April 2021. Industry experts from participating companies and partner associations from drupa special forums, such as VDMA and epda, will cover topical issues and global trends, including Industry 4.0, Digitisation, Circular Economy, Sustainability, E-commerce and Platform Economy in their sessions and videos. With its three pillars (Exhibition Space, Conference Area and Networking Plaza), the fourth drupa preview since October 2020 gives visitors an idea of the added value virtual.drupa will be offering from April 20 to 23, 2021.
The virtual.drupa event was announced last year after the face-to-face format of the world’s leading printing trade exhibition had to be cancelled due to the pandemic. Organiser Messe Düsseldorf stated that bookings for the virtual drupa in April have been very strongly going on. Interaction, networking and lead generation will be driven by matchmaking options among industry experts, whilst continuous conference streaming will deliver fascinating content.
