Knowledge Forum heads for Melbourne and Auckland

The supply side professionals who make up the expert panels at this month’s innovative Knowledge Forum could be forgiven for succumbing to drupa fatigue. Addressing well attended forums in both Brisbane and Sydney over the past two weeks they have detailed their own experiences at the Düsseldorf trade show, praised their firm’s products and solutions, and occasionally got stuck into one another as professional rivalry becomes strained.

They have been living with drupa, preparations and attendance, for most of the year and sometimes it shows in their sometime ambivalent responses.

“They’ve all been very professional and done a great job, “ said Claire Gillespie, convenor of the Knowledge Forum. “The panel discussions have been very popular. It is a good way of keeping everyone honest.”

With sponsors and participants from many of the major suppliers to the industry the Knowledge Forum has been well received thus far. “It’s a good opportunity for people in the industry to get a feel and an understanding of what happened at drupa without making the trip. Of course we’d like more people to come along but attendance so far has been very good.”

Interest in the Auckland leg of the tour is running high with many industry professionals already booked. To ensure your place go to : www.theknowledgeforum.com
