Returning to FESPA 2013 is the Hall of Fame which highlights the ‘who’s who’ of leading printers across the global print community. This initiative which started at FESPA Digital 2012 will continue at the flagship London event, where the overall Global Printer of the Year will be announced, alongside the top five printers in each country. Printers are nominated by their peers for having pioneered a new approach or technology. The winners and top five nominees per country will be announced at the Awards Gala Dinner on the 27th June 2013.

Duncan MacOwan, head of events and new media, FESPA comments, “We have nine confirmed show features for FESPA 2013 - a mix of new and returning - designed to take visitors on a business trip to find a new Destination for Print. The show features are created with the aim to encourage and inspire PSP’s as they travel around the show discovering the many aspects of print, from multiple processes (screen, digital, etc) to diverse applications. Not just the theme of FESPA 2013, the campaign strapline is a call to action for printers around the world. A productive mix of knowledge-based and practical content, real life business examples will be presented, as well as a raft of new ideas to enable printers to explore opportunities and develop products and services that will benefit their customers, helping them increase the business bottom line.”
