The other is Luxury Packaging – the UK’s only event for luxury brands to source the freshest innovation, products and ideas within luxury packaging. There will be plenty of show floor entertainment with the launch of three new features – The Live Design Challenge, The Great Innovation Debate and The Student Design Challenge, providing exhibitors and visitors with an exclusive programme of valuable and educational content. Visitors will also be able to get one-to-one personalised advice on any aspect of their packaging from expert professionals at the Packaging Consultancy Clinic. There will also be an array of free-to-attend Learnshops, spanning the entire packaging market, delivered by a who’s who of international industry experts. Last year included experts from Urban Veda, Unilever, Kimberly-Clark and Kingfisher Group. It is set to be a big year for Packaging Innovations and Luxury Packaging London, with increased visitor and exhibitor numbers. Geoff Curtis, managing director at exhibiting company Stribbons, said: “It continues to innovate every year to deliver new features, new topics, and new ways of delivering the audience that we as packaging suppliers need to grow our businesses. The success of the show in turn brings business to us, and therefore we see it as the key event to be at.”
