The Ipex 2014 print industry show closed its doors at London's ExCel venue on 29 March with total recorded attendance of 22,768, including 3,532 exhibitors. The geographical visitor split was 54% UK and 46% international.
Peter Hall, managing director of show organiser Informa Exhibitions, comments: "With the fast evolving print industry and the challenges these changes represent, Informa has collaborated closely with its stakeholders to ensure the delivery of an informative and engaging event that offered a wide range of benefits, most importantly a good return on exhibitor and visitor investment".
He continues: "The initial feedback from Ipex's stakeholders confirms that the changes we implemented and the features we introduced provided visitors with more reasons than ever to attend. It also helped us deliver a multi-faceted show that completely supports the industry. I believe that Ipex 2014 firmly set the tone for future events."
Tim Webb, executive director of PICON, adds: "The decision to move Ipex to ExCeL London has been a real step forward as far as our membership is concerned. The location, the facilities and the staff have all contributed to a really smooth transition from Birmingham, and ultimately a successful show. Overall, the exhibition has been better than expected with a good level of high quality visitors from around the world looking to do business."
Ipex 2018 will take place at ExCeL London from 19-24 March 2018.
