The 2012 instalment of Sign and Digital UK saw some impressive hands-on demonstration areas


Event director of industry exhibition, Sign and Digital UK, has revealed the direction of the 2013 show in an interview with SignLink.

Without giving away any surprises, Rudi Blackett explained organisers of the 25 year-long running show plan to develop the show’s ‘overall value’ will be adding more hands-on demonstrations and seminars to ensure sign-makers ‘maximise the return of their businesses in this competitive market’.

Blackett expanded on his predictions and visions for the 2013 instalment: “Sign and Digital UK 2013 will deliver the best products, at the right price, with the best expert advice.”

Blackett continues: “As organisers we always plan to develop the overall value the show gives to both visitors and exhibitors, and for Sign and Digital UK 2013 we will be adding in even more demos and opportunities and advice to learn about the growth areas of the market.

“The show is not only the UK industry’s ‘buying show’,  but also the perfect place to find out how to position your business at the forefront of change. It also delivers far more than just wide-format, hence the name of the show and its heritage. All key sectors of the market are represented for sign-makers as well as graphic output specialists and the growing number of end-users and businesses using signage.”

Sign and Digital UK 2013 is set to take place at Birmingham’s NEC from April 30th to May 2nd.
