Visitor's Speak: G Venugopal, executive director, Sterling Print House

How many PrintPack India exhibitions have you attended before?

This is my third.

How is the eleventh edition of the show different from the previous ones?

The surprise element is missing in this edition of PrintPack. It has become more typical.  

The segment of products that interested you the most? And the machine?

Finishing and post-press equipment especially from Indian manufacturers was a major attraction for me.

If you have to suffix a category name to PrintPack, like we say ‘digital Drupa’, what would you call PrintPack India 2013? Why?

I would call it a 'practical Drupa'. The show has solutions for all segments of printing technology.

One machine that blew you away is…

The three cylinder knurling machine from Memory Repro Systems is really impressive.

Change in venue – love or loath it?

Inconvinience! Pragati Maidan would have been more convinient.
