Roz Guarnori, divisional director, Fespa, said: “We always consult with our exhibitors on the location of our shows and Berlin was one of the favourites. We’ve received positive reactions from exhibitors for the Berlin event, which is evident from the floor space already booked and optioned, even before Fespa 2017 began. Berlin is a favourite city as many of our exhibitors have positive memories of our last Berlin event back in 2007.”
When Fespa was last held in Berlin, it attracted increased attendance from Eastern Europe, especially Poland and Russia, in addition to the traditional core audience from Western Europe.
Founded in 1962, FESPA is a global federation of 37 member associations for the screen printing, digital printing and textile printing community. Its dual aim is to promote screen printing and digital imaging and to share knowledge about screen and digital printing with its members across the world.
