FuturePrint Leaders Summit set to inspire

The FuturePrint Leaders Summit 2022 will take place on June 29th and 30th and will see global print leaders gather in Geneva to drive change, swap stories, and lead transformations.

Taking place over two days at two locations, the first day will be hosted at the Palexpo Congress Centre and will feature keynotes, panels, and presentations from leaders in the print and packaging spheres.

Split into two sessions by a networking lunch, the morning will cover topics such as creating success in a crisis and thinking different about business. The afternoon will see attendees focus on innovation and technology and take part in discussions around Innovation and Women Leading in Print. Finishing off the day, visitors will have the chance to enjoy an evening reception at Villa Sarasin.

The second day will feature a roundtable format hosted at Villa Sarasin giving delegates the chance to discuss key issues facing the industry. Split into two discussion groups, attendees will have the opportunity to discuss topics such as supply chain issues, localisation, and net-zero targets.

The industry needs a beacon to help us move forward, particularly in turbulent times, and we believe the FuturePrint Leaders Summit will succeed in lighting the way

Marcus Timson, co-founder of FuturePrint says: “The print sector has been under stress caused by forces from outside the sector. This has compelled us all to adapt or risk becoming obsolete. It has also shaped the intention and objectives for the FuturePrint Leaders Summit – it’s the perfect time to convene and set the agenda for the future.

“We can’t wait to bring the community together to share perspectives, inspire innovation, and spark new ideas. The industry needs a beacon to help us move forward, particularly in turbulent times, and we believe the FuturePrint Leaders Summit will succeed in lighting the way.”

Sessions will be led by industry members such as Jean-Pascal, CEO of BOBST; Evandro Matteucci, vice president and general manager of Building Materials/Packaging Business at EFI; and Angus Condie, director of technology at Xaar. Kristi Duvall, vice president of sales at The Boxmaker will lead the discussion on Women Leading in Print having been recognised as a Women in Wide Format award winner in 2021 by Big Picture Magazine.
