The ongoing global pandemic as well as national and international lockdown measures and associated travel restrictions, the PRINT & DIGITAL CONVENTION congress and trade fair originally planned for June has been moved to October 20-21, 2021.
According to the organisers, Fachverband Medienproduktion and Messe Düsseldorf, they are counting on better general conditions in autumn and an extended planning horizon for participants. “We have a responsibility to the health of our visitors and exhibitors. Against the background of the current Corona Virus pandemic and continuing restrictions, it is unfortunately not guaranteed that we will be able to hold the PRINT & DIGITAL CONVENTION at the Düsseldorf exhibition centre in June”. The official release stated
“The PRINT & DIGITAL CONVENTION will focus on the presentation of innovative technologies in projects that not only showcase individual machines or tools, but will also demonstrate overall solutions oriented on practical requirements. In addition to exciting exhibits and intensive expert advice at the exhibitor stands, visitors to the event can expect an extensive and top-class programme of lectures on all relevant aspects of corporate communication and print and digital technologies”. The organisers said
Also, the statement reads: “In this way, as an established annual event in the industry, the congress and trade fair together with virtual offerings such as virtual DRUPA and DRUPA’s global Print Technologies trade fair portfolio – bridges the time window until the next DRUPA in 2024 and offers an important platform for knowledge transfer, exchange and networking”.
