Taking place April 21-22 at World Trade Center in Mexico
City, the two-day conference program features representatives from: suppliers
such as Avery Dennison, HP Indigo, Epson, Mark Andy, Goss International, Esko,
DuPont, UPM Raflatac, Wausau Coated Products, Accraply, Yupo, AVT, Smartrac and
Flint Group; converters Papeles y Conversiones de México and Gráfica Villalba;
regional associations Ametiq and Acoban; brand Tequila Bonanza; and the Mexican
Wines Committee.
Labels & Labeling’s James Quirk, Latin America editor,
and Danielle Jerschefske, North America editor, will help chair and moderate
sessions and discussions across the two days.
Sessions will cover topics ranging from training and
education in the label industry, and creating new opportunities in brand
development and market positioning, to opportunities in Mexico’s fast-growing
wine market and in-mold cup production for World Cup 2014, which was held in
Brazil.
In addition, a table-top exhibition will support the summit,
with representatives from further suppliers to the market, such as Xeikon,
SPGPrints, Edale, Sappi, Sun Chemical, Alphasonics and RotoMetrics, to be
present.
The previous Label Summit Latin America, held last year in
Medellin, Colombia, hosted more people than any previous Label Summit run
anywhere in the world.
Tasha Ventimiglia, event director for Label
Summit Latin America, said: “The aim of Label Summit Latin America is to help
printers, brand owners, designers and industry suppliers to capitalize on their
full business potential by providing them with the latest tools, skills and
knowhow. With plenty of time to network and foster new connections too, the
summit should give them the perfect chance to grasp new opportunities to take
their business to the next level.”
