Organiser Messe Dusseldorf has opened registration for exhibitors and interested companies from the international printing industry for virtual.drupa (20-23 April 2021). The event was announced last year after the face-to-face format of the world's leading trade fair had to be cancelled due to the Coronavirus pandemic.
During the four-day online show, companies will present their products to the global print community and share expert knowledge. Companies can now register for the virtual drupa at https://virtual.drupa.com
Total exhibitor package price is 4.900 EUR (plus VAT).
“The basic package includes a presence in the Exhibition Space, where the company profile, service and product offerings are displayed in an online showroom,” says a drupa press release. “Keywords, product categories and video presentations guide interested parties to the various profiles, which remain accessible for information and interaction after virtual.drupa, regardless of time and place.
“Based on the information in the showroom, visitors can find exhibitors via profiles and keywords to get in touch with. With the help of matchmaking, exhibitors can also interact personally with existing and new customers in the Networking Plaza and arrange meetings after registration. This allows targeted networking in the run-up to the virtual event. The tool not only simplifies the first contact, but also specifies - based on the participants' match in product categories and structural questions.
“The basic package can be expanded with additional individualised services that set the company apart from its competitors. For this purpose, marketing tools such as the integration of company logos, additional product categories for even better findability or prominent placements of advertising banners that actively lead visitors to the online showroom will be available from the end of January. Live web sessions, which enable direct interaction and exchange with relevant target groups and subsequently promote more in-depth, individual contact, are also particularly interesting for generating new contacts.
"In addition to the Exhibition Space and the Networking Plaza, virtual.drupa invites you to transfer knowledge in the Conference Area with top topics from the drupa Hotspots. Internationally renowned speakers will present best cases and highlight the influence of global trends such as the circular economy, sustainability and the connected consumer on the industry.”
