Screenmedia Expo 2013 has been acquired by European Sign Expo and will no longer take place as a standalone event at Earls Court in May 2013. European Sign Expo is a joint venture with the European Sign Federation and FESPA. FESPA is a not-for-profit federation of trade associations serving the digital printing, screen printing and textile printing community. European Sign Expo is a new, dedicated event for marketers, advertisers, brand owners, buyers and specifiers of advertising and signage, and sign makers. The event will showcase the full range of technological innovations and applications available in this space. The three-day European Sign Expo is co-located with FESPA 2013, a leading global event for printed signage and graphics (ExCeL London, 25-29 June 2013), giving visitors to either FESPA 2013 or European Sign Expo automatic access to the neighbouring event free of charge.
