PRINT MATTERS FOR THE FUTURE CONFERENCE IN STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN
The printing industry is facing severe challenges and, in this event, participants including national printing associations, printers, suppliers to the industry, and high-level speakers coming from all over Europe, finally had the opportunity to meet again in person and share their views on the latest developments and the future of the industry. Each year in late spring, Intergraf organises the ‘Print Matters for the Future’ conference focusing on different aspects of the industry and presenting the most relevant topics to the printing industry.
The event was moderated by Ulrich Stetter, President of Intergraf and Managing Director of Druckhaus Mainfranken GmbH, and Håvard Grjotheim, Vice President of NOPA and Chairman of Scandbook Holding AB.
The conference kicked off with the presentation on the European graphic paper outlook by Alejandro Mata Lopez, Director Europe packaging and graphic paper of Fastmarkets RISI, who explained the current situation of paper supply and considered that the current recovery could be a bubble that is about to burst.

4 WEEKS UNTIL FESPA GLOBAL PRINT EXPO 2022: INDUSTRY GETS READY TO PUT PRINT BACK IN MOTION
340 international suppliers are now contracted to exhibit, among them are many key industry players who were unable to participate in 2021 including Epson, Fujifilm, MHM and M&R.
Michael Ryan, Head of FESPA Global Print Expo, comments: “Excitement is building as we get closer to the event, and the recent news that COVID restrictions have been lifted in German venues has delivered another strong surge in exhibitor interest. With 340 confirmed exhibitors, we’ll be opening a show with almost double the number of companies that were present in Amsterdam last year, so visitors can be sure of finding the products and business solutions they need to fuel their recovery and growth.”
