It is the first Indian publication dedicated to global events in the printing world. The magazine covers exhibition previews, reviews, listings, conference details and write-ups on prospective events. It also carries interviews of event organisers, speakers at conferences and manufacturer participants in exhibitions. The coverage extends to event managers,tour organisers, travel and destinations as well. Since the readership is aimed at printers, publishers, machinery & material manufacturers event organisers and trade associations, it is also of great value to foreign missions in India and Indian missions abroad.

The Printers Yearbook, now in its 17th year of publication, undergoes a change of format. The Calendar of Events, which was earlier a part of the main publication, now comes to you as an independent supplement. On popular demand for convenience of regular reference and mobility it has been compiled in an A-5 format. While every care has been taken to present the data in its accuracy, based on information available from the organisers, some event dates may change. We have tried to cover over 200 conferences and expos, from around the world, in various themes of activity from the printing, publishing, packaging and converting, stationery, design, software, paper and 3D printing industry. I am sure it will prove to be a useful reference to both organisers and visitors. We would welcome suggestions and views to further improve this publication.
