Programme
A varied programme will covers subjects directly related to the envelope industry and also topics and trends with a broader implication.
The rapid growth in the digitalisation of communication continues to present the envelope industry with a tantalizing challenge. We’ll look at e-commerce trends and hear how the envelope industry can harness the opportunities that this presents.
