Package printing conference launched for US market

Tarsus Group, organizers of the Labelexpo Global Series, is launching a new two-day conference and table-top exhibition this autumn for the package printing markets across North and South America.

Taking place November 5-6, Packprint Summit Americas will be the region’s first dedicated event to focus entirely on the package printing industry.

Being held at the JW Marriott Marquis Miami Hotel, Miami, the event has already attracted the support of over 20 US and international exhibitors including Harper Corporation of America, Mark Andy, Stork Prints and Xeikon.

Aimed at brand owners, designers and printers/converters of labels, flexible packaging and cartons, the summit will offer delegates an educational platform to learn about current trends and technologies from a mix of discussion panels, technology presentations and real-life business case studies.

Conference session topics will include brand development and positioning, digital package printing and making the move from label to package printing.

Packprint Summit Americas is being organized in partnership with Packprint World. Package printing will also have an important presence at the forthcoming Labelexpo Europe 2013.

Tasha Ventimiglia, event director for Packprint Summit Americas, said: ‘This is an exciting new event for us. The package printing/product decoration market is experiencing strong, fast and sustainable growth thanks to the ever increasing demand for short runs and variation across FMCGs.

‘Our focus will be on delivering an event that taps directly into the heart of this lucrative growth area and show how businesses can increase profitability and add value to their customers.’
