Hybrid Software has finalised the agenda for its Hybrid Fusion Packaging Summit 2025, which will take place from April 22-25 in Amsterdam.
The three-day summit aims to bring together global industry leaders for an exclusive opportunity to learn, exchange ideas, and gain practical insights on driving operational efficiencies, embracing digital transformation, and meeting sustainability targets.
Key summit tracks and topics include:
• Impact of Artificial Intelligence on labels and packaging.
