Laut des jüngsten Worldwide Survey der FESPA sind deutsche Druckunternehmen für Großformate im internationalen Vergleich führend, wenn es um die Auffassung, dass digitale Herstellung die Plattform für zukünftiges Wachstum ist, geht.  Mehr als 69 % der deutschen Druckunternehmen, verglichen mit nur 50,5 % weltweit, sind der Auffassung, dass eine exklusive Digitaldruckproduktion das Erfolgsrezept für die Branche für Großdruckformate ist.

This year’s FESPA Mexico 2010, taking place from 26 – 28 August 2010 (Centro Banamex, Mexico City) is set to be the biggest FESPA Mexico show to date, with a 40% increase in exhibitor floor space, and significant commitment from international exhibitors.
