MESSE DUSSELDORF—  Messe Düsseldorf has reassigned management responsibility for the drupa print industry trade show to its president and CEO, Wolfram Diener, with the recent retirement of operative managing director Erhard Wienkamp, who was previously responsible for the event. The move means that Sabine Geldermann, who continues as director of drupa, will now report up the management chain to Mr Diener, who commented, ‘Our trade fair portfolios are now organised in such a way to foster the best possible synergies in the coming years. That’s how we’ll reinforce the leading position of our trade shows in Düsseldorf and worldwide – while further driving their growth.’ Messe Düsseldorf said Ms Geldermann will continue to be responsible for the operational side of drupa, coordinating strategic decisions with Mr Diener. It added that it is currently still analysing drupa 2024, which was held in May-June this year, before drawing any conclusions regarding future changes to the show.
