Heidelberg launches Innovation Week 2020, a five-day live online event focusing on process digitization for the commercial, label and packaging printing segments.
Under the slogan Unfold your potential, this virtual exhibition, which will take place from Monday 19 to Friday 23 October 2020, will include product presentations, innovation discussions and face-to-face sessions.
The Innovation Week brings together the German press manufacturer and three of its partners, the German post-press and packaging technology brand Polar-Mohr, the Chinese manufacturer of board converting and finishing machines MK Masterwork and the newly developed central automated supplier and customer management platform Zaikio from Crispy Mountain, a Heidelberg subsidiary for one year.
Each day, three presentations with demonstrations and lectures are offered (see program below). They will take place in German and English with subtitles in six other languages, including French.
Participants will be able to ask any questions they wish, and to take things even further, one-on-one interviews with the local Heidelberg team are offered. Personal interviews by videoconference can be booked today and will take place from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm.
"We give our interested customers and participants the opportunity to benefit from the knowledge of our experts by clarifying questions easily and directly with their Heidelberg contact in a video chat." explains Ludwig Allgoewer, Head of Global Sales and Marketing at Heidelberg. As at a traditional trade fair, these individual sessions will be supported by the international sales and product support team.
