drupa 2008, Solving a Complex Puzzle: An Interview with Werner M. Dornscheidt

Q: What can visitors expect from the drupa 2008 accompanying program?
Dornscheidt: These know-how events were a big success at the last drupa, so we want to offer visitors the same type of information and support again this time around. The “drupa innovation parc” will make another appearance. All of Hall 7 will be dedicated to a forum showing new and innovative technologies, including workflow, publishing, PDF, XML and the like, as well as interdisciplinary themes in the “print buyer innovation parc”. A “JDF experience parc” and a new “JDF experience theater” will showcase the latest developments in JDF. In the “Compass Sessions,” the German Printing and Media Industries Federation (Bundesverband Druck) will hold technical and practical workshops daily from 9.00 - 11.00a.m. “Highlight Tours” to the booths of selected exhibitors, organized by Deutscher Drucker publishers, will complete the Compass Sessions by offering hands-on exposure to key trends in the print and media industry.
