Reinvesting in the printing community

FESPA’s reinvestment initiative is an international reinvestment programme that uses revenue from FESPA events to support the global speciality print community to achieve sustainable and profitable growth.

The reinvestment is channelled into four key areas:

Since 2002, the reinvestment programme has continually delivered a range of high-quality products and services for printers worldwide. These include:

• independent market research
• conferences, seminars and webinars
• international summits
• regional and national congresses
• educational guides
• technical support and training content
• international print award programme
• event features
• exclusive content and articles in 36 languages

Profit for Purpose also actively supports projects in developing markets, such as training schools, educational roadshows and community support initiatives.

What is the FESPA Projects Committee? 

FESPA’s reinvestment programme supports the global print community by reinvesting profits from our shows and events into initiatives that benefit our 37 international Associations and their members. Applications for funding are reviewed by the FESPA Projects Committee, which ensures that investment is distributed fairly across the Associations network.

Since it’s launch in 2004, the programme has funded more than 2 million euros towards projects worldwide, helping Associations deliver initiatives that connect, inspire and support the printing community. The reinvestment not only drives industry development but also strengthens the long-term sustainability and activity  of FESPA’s Associations.

How does Profit for Purpose work for our members?

FESPA exists to help print – and print businesses – to succeed and grow. All revenues generated by FESPA are actively used for the immediate benefit of the speciality print community.

Whenever someone exhibits or sponsors a FESPA event or feature, or attends a FESPA event anywhere in the world, they are contributing to our Profit for Purpose programme.

By doing so, they’re helping us, as an organisation, to develop and sustain a community of printers who are educated, informed and well equipped for a positive and profitable future.

By investing with FESPA, printers are helping to grow a successful and receptive audience for their products and services.

Some Profit for Purpose initiatives are open to any printer, but only FESPA members have access to the full range of benefits. Visit: www.uat.fespa.spindogs-dev7.co.uk/become-a-member to find out more.
