Inkjet Academy
9-10 May 2022
The Inkjet Academy introductory course is aimed at people wishing to understand the essential aspects of the technology. The event is delivered by Dr Mark Bale of DoDxAct and Dr Tim Phillips of Catenary Solutions and IMI Europe who have completely updated and revitalised the course content.

“IMI Europe conferences are known for the quality of our hospitality and networking, and for that reason we made the decision that this event would be postponed until we were able to meet in person, rather than attempting an online version of our flagship conference,” comments Tim Phillips, Managing Director IMI Europe. “We are pleased to be welcoming people back to our events in person and Digital Print Europe 2022 will be our first face-to-face event since the beginning of the pandemic.”
