Fespa

Around 75% of floor space has already been reserved by exhibitors at Fespa Africa 2014, set to take place in Johannesburg, South Africa from 2-4 July next year.

Fespa Fabric will be integrated into Fespa Digital 2014, on 20 – 23 May at Messe Munich, Germany, instead of running as a separate show, the organisers have said.

Fespa has revamped its senior leadership team with Neil Felton stepping up to become chief executive of the federation.

Fespa has overhauled its awards programme, throwing the new-look annual event open to every single printer in the world and toning down emphasis on technology.

Fespa has promoted two exhibition managers to head up growth of the event in new and emerging markets such as Africa and South America.

Fespa has kicked off the international marketing campaign for next year's Fespa Digital 2014 under the strapline 'Dive Deeper into Digital'.
