Dave’s blog – Drupa word cloud
Posted in Digital printing on 01 May 2012
There’s a swirl of launches, information, meetings and schmoozing set to take place at Drupa over the coming weeks, and preparations are coming to a head.As my first Drupa, it’s shaping up to be quite a daunting prospect, with so much to see. Even though there’s a full fortnight to see it, there’s the potential that it could be information overload when I emerge from the other side.
We’ve got a fairly comprehensive editorial diary in place, ensuring we’ll be on hand for key announcements and presentations during the show which will for sure shape the future of the package printing market in the coming years. But to help me personally, I’ve started to compile a word cloud, reminding me of just some of the important companies/technologies I want to see:
Digital printing – digital finishing – HP Indigo – Highcon Euclid – nanography – Landa – UV – Ultrachem – used machinery – collaboration – manroland – Goss – Sunday Vpak – inkjet – sheet-fed – Titan – innovation – finishing and converting – added-value- environment –recycling
I’ve got a personal word cloud on the go as well:
Dusseldorf – Cologne – currywurst – pretzel roll – photos – video – blog – shoes – plasters – paracetamol
These word clouds are in no way complete, and will evolve as the show progresses, but it’s a useful way to help me remember what is in my diary.
