IPI Conference 2025: Two Days That Moved Industrial Print Forward

13 December 2025: The fourth edition of Industrial Print Integration (IPI) 2025 delivered two days of concentrated insight and collaboration in Düsseldorf-Neuss. With 59 presentations across three tracks and a buzzing exhibition of 56 tabletop stands, IPI 2025 reaffirmed its role as a key meeting point for the industrial, functional and specialist print community. Event started with a strong technical focus: a fully booked waveform training drew participants eager for hands-on optimisation techniques before the main programme began. From there, the conference unfolded into an intensive blend of research updates, application case studies and forward-looking technology previews.

Attendees highlighted that blend as central to the event’s impact. Jacob Ørum from LEGO described IPI as a place that reveals “what’s now and what’s coming” in innovation. Across the exhibition floor, where major suppliers stood alongside start-ups and research labs, conversations flowed easily.

“A seamless mix between technical talks and networking,” noted AGC Automotive’s Samuel Machi, calling the format “purpose-built for collaboration.”

For newcomers, the value was equally clear. Gianmarco Zaccarini of GRAF Industries called his first visit “a full immersion in mind-opening presentations,” while AVA CAD CAM’s Duncan Ross praised the event simply as “enjoyable, knowledgeable, good networking.”

AT Inks’ Pradeep Koyadan distilled the consensus into a single line: IPI is “where innovation meets technical excellence.”

IPI Conference 2026 will be returning to Düsseldorf-Neuss on 24-25 November 2026.
