The next Fespa Global Print Expo will take place 6-9 May 2025 at Messe Berlin, Germany. The figures for this year’s expo and sister events - held in Amsterdam over four days last month - show 12,706 unique visitors attended, with 45% attending for more than a day.
The co-located Global Print Expo 2024, European Sign Expo, Personalisation Experience and the inaugural Sportswear Pro attracted a global audience of senior decision-makers - visitors travelled from 120 countries, the Netherlands, Germany, the UK, Italy, Belgium, France, Poland, Spain, Switzerland, and Sweden bringing the largest portion of the audience.
Firming up investment plans was high on the agenda of visitors - 76% of which were business owners, directors, partners or managers and 85% of visitors shared that they are involved in the decision-making process for their business. 92% of the total audience said they were looking to invest in equipment in the next 12 months. The collective median budget was over 2.7bn Euro.
Michael Ryan, head of Fespa Global Print Expo, said: “From conversations with exhibitors and visitors at the events, the buzz of creativity and eagerness to learn and explore new solutions and ideas manifested an inspiration to explore new opportunities in everyone. Feedback from our visitors was extremely positive, praising the quality of our international exhibiting community showcasing solutions dedicated to speciality print and signage. It’s a truly unique feeling to meet with so many like-minded businesses and to connect people from all around the world with the same purpose - to grow and develop our industry and this incredible community. I’m looking forward to seeing what the year brings in the wake of the events and I can’t wait for the multitude of ideas and investments from the show to pan out.”
