"We make the future" is the slogan of Fachpack 2021. "Fachpack 2021 is the place to be for everyone who wants to know what will be in demand in the packaging industry in the future and for those who have missed networking and face-to-face interaction over the past year and a half," says Heike Slotta, Executive Director NürnbergMesse.

In addition, the program of the lecture forums will be streamed live during the trade fair and will also be available afterwards. myFachpack can be used on the desktop, but also mobile via an app.
