Industry Insights: FESPA London: Your Destination for 2013

Are you planning a business journey in 2013? If you are looking for an inspirational print destination then London, England should be on your travel agenda this year.


The focus of FESPA 2013 is to make our community aware of, and give them the tools to enter, new business opportunities aligned to their existing core businesses. This feature, with the combined expertise of both the CTCO and FESPA teams, will do just that—offering print service providers insight and support as they explore the potentially lucrative promotional product opportunity.

Before the main FESPA London show kicks off in June, we conducted our annual Global Summit, which this year took place January 22-23 in London, providing exhibitors with a taste of what London has to offer them. This year we had a host of international brands signed up to speak at the conference, such as Tesco, Saatch & Saatchi, JC Decaux, and Icon-World.

More than 200 business leaders, including more than 100 of the owners and directors of the world’s leading print businesses, attended the 2013 Summit at the end of January. At the event, printers had the opportunity to connect and network with brand owners and senior representatives from marketing agencies from around the globe.

As you can see, we at FESPA have lots to plan for and look forward to for 2013. We’re looking forward to our best and biggest FESPA yet and to seeing American friends from across the global print community.
