Robyn Smith - President/Publisher: rsmith@nvpublications.com Len Prazych - Vice President Loretta Sellecchia, Marketing & Export Manager at SCS Atomaberg, is equally hopeful: “Although it will take some time to get back to normal, we are confident that drupa will be the solution to give the printing industry a new boost.” drupa is an indispensable platform for industry par- ticipants, providing orientation, impetus and, above all, meeting the demand for face-to-face meetings to a high degree. “At the first drupa in 1951, Bobst sold 43 machines. 70 years later, in 2021, we will be shaping the future of the packaging world at drupa by actively driving change in the industry,” says Jean-Pascal Bost, CEO of Bobst, “sharing our vision in a changing world is essential, and drupa 2021 will be the right place to do so.” Claus Bolza-Schünemann, CEO of Koenig & Bauer, adds, “drupa is the leading trade fair and the highlight of an entire industry. We at Koenig & Bauer have already put a lot of energy and passion into drupa. We would like to share this with you – also in 2021 – and of course on the way there. Stay tuned, it’s worth it!” With a full year before the start of drupa, the planning team is working hard to support the exhibitors in their ef- forts to remain successful in the market, even after the effects of the Coronavirus. “After the storm comes a rain- bow”, believes Guanghui Wu, Chairman of Shanghai Yoco Printing Machinery. Wei Huang, Chairman of UP Group, adds: “We are looking forward to April 2021 to meet at the most important global meeting place for the industry – drupa!“ The online ticket shop for drupa 2021 is now open.
