NPES to sponsor August educational conference in Brazil

NPES, the Association for Suppliers of Printing, Publishing and Converting Technologies, is sponsoring an educational conference in Brazil on Aug. 6, from 9 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., at the Senai School José Mindlin Ephim in Barueri.


The half-day conference, "Printed Packaging: Present and Future in Brazil," is presented by NPES in partnership with ANconsulting and APS Feiras & Eventos . It will bring together Brazilian print leaders who will examine the future outlook for these business sectors in the highly competitive and rapidly changing Brazilian marketplace.

"This educational program in Brazil is both timely and important," NPES President Ralph Nappi said. "The printing industry in Brazil, and packaging in particular, is expected to undergo major transformation and growth. Working with our Brazilian partners offers valuable business opportunities for NPES members and the regional marketplace."

NPES Latin America Director and President of ANconsulting Hamilton Costa will provide the main discussion topic throughout the conference program. In addition, three panels representing areas addressed in the study will discuss cardboard, flexible packaging and packaging and digitally printed labels.

More than 150 industry leaders are expected to participate in these educational sessions.

The upcoming conference builds on the success of recent educational programs conducted by NPES in India.
