What We Would Do Differently: Europe’s Print Leaders on Growth, Risk and Reinvention

26 Nov 2026

The morning speakers come together for a frank discussion about the decisions behind their growth. Moving beyond the individual company stories, the panel will explore where leaders acted too early, waited too long, invested successfully or misread the direction of the market.

It will compare different approaches to technology, international expansion, customer relationships, talent and partnership, revealing where experiences align and where opinions differ. Each panellist will identify the decision they would approach differently if starting again today and the lesson that other print leaders can apply to their own businesses.
