"Since 1957, BOBST has attended every drupa. As a major player in the packaging industry, we value opportunities to meet with all our customers in a location where we can reveal strategies and novelties, and discover the future of our industry. drupa provides a unique opportunity and brings a new impetus to the industry in a formalized way, making trends more visible and tangible. For the upcoming drupa 2024, which will take place 8 years after the previous one for all the reasons we know, we expect more focus on sustainable innovations, evolutions of current technologies, search for new packaging trends and less on machines demonstrations. The future of the packaging industry will be shaped by its ability to cope with a more digitalized world, leading to greater sustainability. For drupa 2024, we expect fewer participants, but intensified network development with industry leaders and key players – all looking at opportunities between brand owners, converters, industry suppliers, and governmental representatives, as the future of our industry can only be built together."
