The annual technology exhibition which wrapped up mid-October just released the attendance figures, and said that more than 330 vendors displayed their wares, ranging from new presses to new software applications aimed at helping newspapers fortify their online efforts.
Five newspaper executives were elected to Ifra’s board, including Mark Mikolajczyk, publisher of Florida Today in Melbourne. Others were Philip Alberdingk Thijm, Netherlands; Mohamed K. Alayyan, Jordan; Inaki Arechabaleta Torrontegui, Spain; and Mikael Pentikainen, Finland.
Next year’s IfraExpo will be held in Vienna, Austria, from Oct. 8-11.
