Drupa’s new Digital Platform for knowledge transfer and networking
09 September 2020: Starting in October 2020, the “drupa preview,” an online platform will be launched. It will consist of the content formats “Conference”, “Exhibition” as well as “Networking.” The new digital platform will offer exhibitors and visitors an additional channel for touching base with the sector, discussing trending themes and presenting product portfolios. The drupa preview will enable continuous exchange of information until the hybrid trade fair in April 2021, which will combine the on-site event with additional digital content.
The content of drupa preview is free of charge for visitors. After registration content and videos can be accessed at any time. For web sessions, live lectures and Matchmaking there will be a separate (free) registration for a specific day and time.
In the “Conference Area” users will find lectures, videos and interviews – providing a preview of drupa 2021. It will reflect the agenda in terms of content and the knowledge transfer that drupa stands for. The videos will be available on demand. The “Exhibition Space” brings together what visitors can expect to normally see in the exhibition areas – exciting products, innovative companies and expert input. The “Networking Plaza” will allow companies and interested parties to establish live online contact in advance and intensify this contact at the event in April 2021.
Sabine Geldermann, Director drupa and Print Technologies said: “With the hybrid drupa we also give those visitors who are unable to travel the possibility to take part in the industry get-together. At the same time, we meet exhibitors’ needs to reach the international community personally.”
