Over 12,000 people attended Fespa Digital in Barcelona at the end of last month. Over 46% of visiting printers attended the four-day event for more than one day, bringing the total attendance to over 17,500, a record breaking revisit rate for any of the Fespa Digital events over their five year existence.
The highest number of visitors came from Spain (45%), followed by the UK (6%), France (6%), Italy (6%) and Germany (4%). In all, attendees came from 111 countries.
Fespa managing director Neil Felton said: "The experience I have had on the run up, and during Fespa Digital 2012 has been incredible. The feedback I received from visitors and exhibitors has been overwhelmingly positive.
The next European Fespa exhibition is Fespa 2013, the flagship global “screen, digital and textile” event, which takes place in London in June 2013. Fespa Digital returns in May 2014 at Messe Munich, Germany.
