Registration opens for virtual.drupa 2021, next physical show scheduled for 2024
16 January 2021: Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, drupa 2021, the world’s leading trade fair, could not be held as a face-to-face event. So, the organizers have now lined up a virtual event from April 20 – 23, 2021. Registration is now open for the virtual.drupa 2021.
drupa exhibitors and interested companies from the international printing industry now have the opportunity to register for participation in virtual.drupa. During the four-day online show, companies will present themselves and their products to the global print community, interact and reactivate their business by generating important leads and sharing expert knowledge.
The virtual drupa at https://virtual.drupa.co, includes a presence in the Exhibition Space, where the company profile, service and product offerings are displayed in an online showroom. Keywords, product categories and video presentations guide interested parties to the various profiles, which remain accessible for information and interaction after virtual.drupa, regardless of time and place. Based on the information in the showroom, visitors can find exhibitors via profiles and keywords to get in touch with. The basic package can be expanded with additional individualised services that set the company apart from its competitors.
Internationally renowned speakers will present best cases and highlight the influence of global trends such as the circular economy, sustainability and the connected consumer on the industry.
In a recent interview, Dr. Markus Heering, Managing Director of the VDMA German Printing and Paper Technology Association, said: “Drupa 2024 is a set date in the international trade fair calendar. When scheduling the event, international and regional industry trade fairs must be taken into account, as well as the other events organised by Messe Düsseldorf. A date in 2023 is not possible if 2024 is firmly scheduled. And a further postponement to 2022 carries the risk that Corona will not be overcome by then. We therefore welcome the fact that Messe Düsseldorf is playing it safe.”
