The 13th edition of Label Summit Latin America is set to be held at Cartagena’s Hotel Las Americas in Colombia from April 26-27, 2016. Avery Dennison has also been confirmed as the event’s gold sponsor as it returns to the country for the first time since 2014.

Aimed at trade professionals including printers, label and packaging designers and brand owners, the annual summit will again provide the Colombian market with an array of informative conference sessions and networking opportunities. There will also be over 80 international and Latin American companies exhibiting including Avery Dennison, Arclad, Armor, Bobst, Epson, Flint Group, Gallus, Mark Andy, MPS, Nilpeter, Omet, UPM Raflatac and Xeikon.

Isabela Monteiro, marketing director South America and sales director Brazil at gold sponsor Avery Dennison, comments: "Label Summit Latin America is an excellent opportunity for us to network, meet with our clients, exchange ideas and share our latest insights and innovations with the Andean market."

Tasha Ventimiglia, Americas event director, explains: “It’s great to be returning to Colombia having last been in Medellín back in 2014. This year’s event should be another excellent platform to learn about the latest trends facing the label and package printing sector and hear about the latest technologies and applications that are driving the market forward at such a fast pace. There is so much innovation going on in the industry that next year’s summit will provide the perfect place to discuss shared challenges and find ways to collaborate on the development of new solutions to foster sustained growth for the Latin American industry as a whole.”
