ASPA has invited authentication and traceability industry stakeholders to learn about its work and explore opportunities with ASPA. This event is a part of ASPA’s Industry Connects campaign. 

During the event, ASPA's team will present its initiatives and mission to unite the entire ecosystem against counterfeiting. ASPA president, Manoj Kochar, and senior leadership will lead the meeting, highlighting the necessity of unified action.

This networking event aims to raise awareness, drive discussions, and foster collaboration on innovative solutions to protect economies and consumers worldwide. Leveraging the platform of Drupa 2024, industry stakeholders will engage in impactful dialogue to strengthen the authentication and traceability ecosystem. Attendees will be able to connect with ASPA's efforts and cutting-edge innovations in the fight against counterfeiting and consider joining ASPA to further these goals together.

“Counterfeiting is a global issue that requires a coordinated approach," said Kochar. "By bringing together key stakeholders, we aim to drive innovation, share knowledge, and develop robust strategies to combat counterfeiting effectively."

The relationship between printing, packaging, and counterfeiting is profound. As counterfeiters become more sophisticated, the need for advanced printing and packaging technologies to secure products has never been greater. ASPA’s event will explore how the latest innovations in these fields can be leveraged to protect brands and consumers.

As an association dedicated to combat counterfeiting globally, ASPA recognises the growing threat of counterfeiting and the critical need for coordinated efforts to combat this global issue. Counterfeiting poses significant threats to consumer safety, economic stability, and intellectual property rights. ASPA’s conference at Drupa 2024 is designed to unite stakeholders from various sectors to address these challenges collectively.
