Moreover, the day before the event, June 7, you have the opportunity to attend a Masterclass e-Business in Print at AGFA HQ. This will be provided by #BOPE22 keynote speaker and industry expert Bernd Zipper.
Jos Steutelings, Managing Director VIGC, is already looking forward to it: “We are looking at the challenges that arise against the current economic reality. Which trends and developments should definitely be monitored? And we also let a number of entrepreneurs speak, they will share their e-business cases. We also enter the world of Artificial Intelligence (AI) with a presentation by the world-renowned research center IMEC. International speakers, quality networking and an exclusive VIP dinner, that’s what #BOPE22 stands for. We are ready for a successful edition in June 2022 and ready to welcome everyone back ‘in person’! Let us inspire you around the post-covid trend of this year and next years… e-commerce! “
