"The importance of our industry remains as great as ever. The last few years have shown how important printing and paper technology is in our daily lives: Nothing is shipped or packaged without printing. The industry is evolving and continuously working on improvements, with digitalization and sustainability at the top of the agenda.
We all miss the face-to-face meetings that are also so important in our industry, too. As a live in-person trade fair, drupa is essential for developing ideas together and driving the industry forward through a productive and creative exchange.
I look forward to drupa 2024, when the printing industry will meet again in Düsseldorf."
