Getting our learners involved with virtual.drupa!

We are encouraging our members and learners to get involved with virtual.drupa. It is a perfect opportunity for them to grow their network and development virtually. 

For one year only drupa can be attended within the comfort of your own home. For our apprentices and learners, this is a chance for them to get some unique off-the-job learning and networking, that they may not have had if the event was live in Dusseldorf, Germany. 

We have been encouraging our apprentices to sign up through the networking platform that virtual.drupa has provided for the three-day event, which is being held on April 20-23, 2021. 

As with all live events, drupa is no exception to the impact of COVID-19 but we are looking at this as an opportunity for our BPIF apprentices and learners to get involved and get networking. Our apprentices can build their confidence through the virtual platform and learn more about the wider industry across Europe. 

Sessions will be held virtually and the event line up can be found on the virtual.drupa event’s page here. Session’s will be covering a range of trends in design, colour, technology and more. 

The online event for the print industry will include the following: 

• A Conference Area - Live streams with high-ranking and international speakers on the global trend topics - Artificial Intelligence, Circular Economy, Connected Consumer and Platform Economy
• A Exhibition Space - Live web sessions by exhibitors and presentation of their innovations and products in the online showrooms
• A Networking Plaza - Business leads, networking and matchmaking with visitors and exhibitors worldwide

We look forward to getting our apprentices involved and seeing some of our members talking at the event. For more information visit the virtual.drupa site here and sign up.
