European label and narrow web packaging industry association FINAT is to hold a “Printer2Printer” seminar in Milan in early November, which it says is designed to “encourage open discussion, peer learning and the exchange of real-world experiences between label converters, suppliers and industry experts”.
The event – across three days, from 4 to 6 November, and themed “Printing Excellence – Building the Next Generation of Label Printers” – will combine presentations with audience participation, panel discussions, live voting, roundtable discussions and networking opportunities. Its objective is to “move beyond theory and create meaningful conversations that help businesses improve performance and prepare for the future”.
Contributors include All4Labels, Lappi Group, Marzek Etiketten, Tikedo and Aztec Label, all of whom will participate in a panel discussion around the question “what does excellence mean to you?”. Another confirmed contributor is Stefan Casey, founder of Lightning Tree, who is due to speak in an end-user session intended to create a platform for dialogue between converters, suppliers and brand representatives.
FINAT said the seminar will be an environment in which the entire label value chain can learn together, helping to stimulate discussion, challenge thinking and encourage collaboration. Registration is through FINAT’s website.
