Statements from PDC Exhibitors
Franca Bargmann, Content & Campaign Manager, Konica Minolta Business Solutions Deutschland GmbH
“The atmosphere here at the PDC is amazing; people are in high spirits—and that naturally rubs off on the customers, too. Everyone is interested in print, and that’s really great to see. I think it’s important to highlight print more prominently again and make it something people can experience and touch. Here at the PDC in particular, it becomes clear just how useful and effective physical print materials are.”
Matthias Windolph, Managing Director, HOTSUSHI.BRAND GmbH & Co. KG
“To me, PDC 2026 felt like a real new beginning. The new direction was palpable throughout the entire event—in conversations, on stage, and at the exhibition booths. I was particularly impressed by the high concentration of communications decision-makers, brand owners, and marketing executives who weren’t just looking for solutions but actively wanted to discuss the future of communications. It is precisely this exchange that makes the PRINT DIGITAL CONVENTION so valuable to us as an agency. Here, ideas meet practice, technologies meet brands, and people meet people. PDC 2026 demonstrated this impressively.”
Christian Müller-Wiegmann, Major Account Manager, RISO (Germany) GmbH
“We had a very positive experience at the PRINT DIGITAL CONVENTION 2026 in its new setting. We had high-quality, productive discussions. The PDC was definitely worth it for us as exhibitors. Attendance was very good, and the quality of the visitors was exceptionally high. It was particularly positive that many people from outside the printing industry were also in attendance. That made the discussions very valuable in terms of content.”
Ralf Jahnel, Brand Ambassador, Fedrigoni Deutschland GmbH
“We had a very positive experience at the event in its new setting—with an attractive environment, an outstanding lineup of exhibitors, strong business partners, and numerous exciting contacts and productive discussions. One key takeaway is this: After a two-year hiatus, we know that we must be back in the future. We intend to continue being present here so that we can make Fedrigoni’s innovations available to this market promptly and on-site.”
Frank Uthe, Sales Manager, Digital Print Solutions, Graphic Systems, Fujifilm Germany
“It was well worth it for Fujifilm to unveil the new Revoria PC2120 digital press here in Germany for the first time—including the two special colors, green and pink. For us as a manufacturer, it’s always exciting to gather customer feedback and learn how new technologies are received in the market. The response in this case has been extremely positive.”
"As first-time exhibitors at the PDC, we were completely surprised—both by the number of visitors, the quality of the visitors, and, in particular, the overall organization."
Lena Lenz, Marketing & Communications, Carl Berberich GmbH
“The PRINT DIGITAL CONVENTION 2026 was a resounding success for both exhibitors and visitors alike. The days of the trade show impressively demonstrated just how inspiring and relevant print products are and what emotions they can evoke, especially when combined with digital solutions. Inspiring conversations, compelling presentations, and exciting highlight projects perfectly rounded out the new concept. We’re taking valuable insights with us and heading home full of inspiration and motivation.”
Frank Siegel, Managing Director & Partner, Obility GmbH
“Wefound the PRINT DIGITAL CONVENTION to be a very impressive event.”
It brings together brands, print buyers, producers, resellers, printing service providers, and technology providers in a combined conference and exhibition setting.
Together with our partners at the Vitamin-P Initiative, we were able to demonstrate how a fully digital workflow—from the initial data set to the finished product—works in real time.
The positive response shows just how great the interest is in interconnected processes and practical applications.
"For Obility, the PDC is an important communication platform that should be further expanded."
Manuela Schaap,
, International Business Developer at Print.com
“2026was Print.com’s first PDC, and we’re still overwhelmed by the great conversations, the inspiring questions, and the enthusiastic feedback we received from the many visitors. We really enjoyed the pleasant atmosphere and the networking opportunities. There was a great balance between the technical presentations and ample time for exploring the exhibition and exchanging information. As exhibitors, we’re heading home feeling grateful and highly motivated, and we’re already looking forward to continuing our conversations with everyone we had the pleasure of meeting—whether over a stroopwafel or later with a glass of fine wine. We’re already looking forward to next year.”
