The sustainable print exhibition EcoPrint has announced a group of 24 show ambassadors for its inaugural exhibition, to be held in September in Berlin.
The EcoPrint Ambassadors are a print professionals drawn from the EcoPrint Development Group, who are said to be ‘passionate about sustainability,’ each with a career in print.
Each ambassador will promote sustainability in their own country and market sector, as well as the opportunity to contribute to the formation and content of EcoPrint 2012; and the production and performance of the show.
EcoPrint director Marcus Timson, said: ‘Sustainability in print is not limited to one sector, it affects the entire industry, and this is reflected in the diverse backgrounds of ambassadors. We are delighted to have assembled such an experienced and committed group of people.
