CONFERENCE HISTORY

It has been 40 years since the first Non-Impact Printing (NIP) Conference was held in Venice, Italy in 1981. While the name has evolved over the years, Printing for Fabrication remains the premier conference where industry and academia meet to discuss current challenges and future innovations.
