Grafitalia – Where innovation and excellence meet: an opportunity for debate

Tuesday 11. December 2012 - Grafitalia's 2013 edition will host two networking and meeting areas inside the exhibition halls. One of these is the Innovation Corner, an area sponsored by Assografici where the public can hear about successful case histories and manufacturing excellence: a one-of-a-king stage showcasing technology and innovation.

The programme includes brief speeches focused on graphics and converting issues held by important trade associations (Assografici, Argi, Acimga, Atif) as well as presentations of best practices followed by open debates. The second networking area is the Convention Area, a venue hosting conferences, forums and discussion opportunities. Key events include the Argi convention discussing future scenarios in the printing industry scheduled for Wednesday May 8th; on Thursday, May 9th there will be an international forum by Xplor titled “Postal & Mail now: digital and physical stronger together”. The programme also includes a round table discussion organized by Largo Consumo focusing on promotional communication in retail. May 9th will also mark “Pellitteri’s day”, an award-giving ceremony for outstanding students from Printing, Graphics, Communication and Multimedia schools. It is a one-of-a-kind event in Italy involving and promoting discussion among educational institutions, companies and prominent figures of the graphic industry. Pellitteri’s day’s peculiarity is to combine an award-giving event for young students with the celebration of example-setting figures in the Italian graphic industry and culture through accolades including “Career awards”, “Professionalism awards” and “Training awards” as tangible examples of fully accomplished professionals who can set a role model to encourage young people’s training and dedication to work
