The conference program will kick off with keynotes from three top international speakers on each of the four days: Two presentations by Wall Street Journal bestselling author and consultant Michael Gale will focus on Artificial Intelligence. As author of the book "The Digital Helix," he will share where companies can use digital potential, how to make it accessible to everyone and how to activate business growth with the help of AI. In his keynote speech, James Sommerville from Great Britain will illustrate the great importance of product design in driving innovation and fostering growth.

The star designer played a key role in shaping the iconic Coca-Cola brand, is revolutionizing business and corporate goals and will inspire the print & packaging community with his creative approaches at virtual.drupa. On World Earth day, Dr. Gabrielle Walker will address sustainability issues. The lecturer, author and climate expert will discuss global challenges with a special focus on sustainability, energy consumption, circular economy and climate change. As a strategist, she advises companies on topics such as future investments and process optimization, as well as on the impact that changing business models can have on a company's corporate identity, its external impact and acceptance.

The morning keynotes will be followed in two streams by the English-language daily program of the five drupa special forums "drupa cube," "touchpoint packaging," "touchpoint textile," "drupa next age" and "3D fab+print," which will be accompanied by a professional team of moderators.
