FESPA (www.fespa.com) has announced an educational program that will extend to four different corners of the globe this year. Funded through a re-investment of profits from FESPA’s global exhibitions known as the Profit for Purpose initiative, the four congresses are as follows:

Barcelona, Spain, March 10-11 The Southern European Print Congress, entitled “The Wow Effect of Printing,” will be hosted in partnership with FESPA España Association, FESPA France Association, and Italy’s Siotec.

Copenhagen, Denmark, March 24-25 FESPA’s four Nordic associations – Graphic Association Denmark, FESPA Finland Association, FESPA Norway Association, and FESPA Sweden Association – will collaborate to produce this congress.

Mexico City, April 16 A response to regional demand for more educational content, The Mexico Congress will supplement the eighth FESPA Mexico exhibition in August.

Johannesburg, July 22-23 The African Conference will take place alongside FESPA Africa (July 22-24) in partnership with FESPA associate Printing SA.

“Working in collaboration with the local associations on these events really helps us to understand and reflect the requirements of local printers and the regional market trends,” says FESPA General Secretary Sean Holt.
