Chili publish pulls out of Drupa amid COVID-19 fears

Chili publish has cancelled its presence at Drupa, saying it hopes the move will “reduce large-scale exposure to coronavirus (COVID-19) and ensure business continuity”. The company was set to demonstrate new features within ChiIi publisher at the event, which at this time is still scheduled to take place in Dusseldorf, 16 - 26 June.

Kevin Goeminne, CEO of Chili publish, said: “Drupa is the highlight for anyone in print and packaging. Our team worked hard to deliver new features within the Smart Templates in Chili publisher, as requested by B2B printers, brand owners and agencies. However, we have a responsibility towards our team, partners, customers and the whole community worldwide to ensure that business continuity and full operability prevail at all times.” The company said the new product features would be announced towards the end of April.
