A highlight of the exhibitions is the joint Berlin Publishing Night in the “Tipi”, Berlin, on the first exhibition evening, where visitors can meet up with exhibitors and speakers.

Within the space of one hour participants receive a good overview of Best-in-Class products from areas such as Content Management, Multi Channel Marketing or Print Production. Open stage for more than 50 experts Four stages on both exhibition days give visitors the additional opportunity to find out about latest trends.
