– Business Matters – including a case study from EDS, retail and consumer research insights from Lidl and the Young Talent Award 2026 session exploring opportunities for print in a hyper-personalised future.
– Sustainability Matters – addressing developments such as the Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR), greenwashing considerations, the future of CO? calculation, and evolving corporate sustainability reporting requirements.
– Economic Matters – featuring an outlook on the US print market, developments in the global paper market, and analysis of worldwide production capacity across paper grades.
– Security Matters – focusing on risk assessment, business continuity, crisis management case studies and broader resilience strategies including automation and robotics.
The programme will feature confirmed international speakers and industry experts, offering a strong combination of market intelligence, case studies and strategic foresight to support business decision-making in an increasingly complex environment.
