Following Great Debate Success at Ipex, Pira Forecasts Print to 2020

02 June 2010

Hundreds of delegates attended the Pira Great Print Debates at Ipex, with every session oversubscribed. Each debate looked at a major topic facing the printing industry, including the how printers should market themselves, how printers will evolve, the threat of e-readers and the rise of green print.

The level of excitement was incredible. With the right mix of the hottest topics and the biggest names in print on the panel, we were able to host some memorable debates.

Hot on the heels of such challenging discussion, Pira looks to 2020 with a new Print and Publishing Technology Forecast.

Coming Soon! Pira Print and Publishing Technology Forecast to 2020

Based on primary research and expert technical insight, this new study will map the current state-of-the-art for printing and publishing technologies and forecast likely developments over the next ten years. An exclusive roadmap will provide you with qualitative and quantitative analysis on the development of each major print process, printed product and end-use application. Additional chapters include post-IPEX innovations, publishing sector forecasts and competitive landscape analysis.

The study will be published in Q3 2010 and will cost £3,250. If you'd like to be informed when this report is published, contact Stephen Hill using the contact button top right on this page quoting PPTF2020.
