The event, set up by the trade association as part of its ongoing efforts to drive growth for the UK print industry and foster collaboration in its supply chain, will this year take place on Thursday 19 June at the Marco Pierre White restaurant, on the top floor of The Cube Hotel in Birmingham, which promises skyline views.
To maximise networking potential, guests rotate tables between the three courses and can take advantage of the IPIA’s tailored introduction service.
The event will kick off with informal networking and welcome drinks from 12pm, with lunch served from 1pm. At 2.30pm, IPIA chair Alasdair Browne will take to the stage to share information about the projects the association is championing to sustain and accelerate industry growth.
Drawing on his experience as managing director of Abbot Print, he will also provide insight into key market trends and share where attendees can find new opportunities for business growth.
The Annual Networking Lunch finishes at 4pm although post-event drinks will take place at the nearby Gas Street Social bar – a minute’s walk from the restaurant.
