Showman: Rudi Blackett is the brain behind the event
He says: “Already larger in floor-space than the 2013 exhibition, Sign and Digital UK 2014 has seen a growth in bookings across the board, with particular interest from wide format print suppliers, signage and display systems, lighting, and digital signage firms.”
The show has increased its floor space by 20 percent, making it larger than last year and one the largest shows ever. It has been boosted by the release of a three part documentary about the origins of the show and how it has developed and is set to change in the future.

The documentary is mainly spoken in the words of visitors and exhibitors, some who have been to every show since the 1980s, when shoulder pads and power suits were in vogue and long before the advent of wide-format or even the internet.
One firm that will be there in force is printMax who claim the distinction of being Roland’s most successful authorised dealer. The digital print outfit has booked a large stand at the exhibition with the object of promoting its range of offers based around Roland’s printer range.
The NEC extravaganza kicks off at the end of April in Birmingham.
