On the occasion of the design and print festival, Gmund Paper attracted 1,200 visitors from all over the world to the Mangfalltal and once again presented itself in an unusual ambience, right on the pulse of the product, as a host for creative people, designers as well as print and media specialists.

 

The festival offered a full program for two days. In addition to the 400 best print objects from the renowned Gmund Award, which takes place on 23.10. was awarded for the sixth time, 52 international exhibitors from the fields of design, printing, branding and materiality showed their skills in the halls of the paper production.

Eight top-class speakers, among them the chief designer at BMW, Adrian van Hooydonk and  Benedikt Böckenförde, founder and CEO of Visual Statements, shed light on the complex core topic "Consumer Centric" from a wide variety of perspectives and provided the guests with many new perspectives and  creative input. 

 

A panel discussion with Steffi Czerny, co-founder and managing director of DLD Media, rounded off the program in the paper mill's conference hall. Florian Zibert, founder of Zibert + Friends consulting GmbH, skilfully guided through the program.

That's what the visitors say

"Such a great spirit, an insane statement about creativity and perfectionism - I bow in awe. It doesn't get any better."

"Thank you again for a fantastic event." | "Congratulations on pulling together such a complex event so successfully!"

"Congratulations for the successful event – UNFOLDED." | "... what should I say?!? Chapeau!"

"Gmund is calling and the graphic community is making a pilgrimage in mass and class!" | "That was strong Gmund!"
