Change of leadership at interpack
Since the beginning of September, Thomas Dohse has been the new leading figure at interpack as Project Director. He succeeds Bernd Jablonowski, who has been promoted to the management of Messe Düsseldorf as Executive Director.
Dohse has an excellent network in the global packaging sector and the related process industry. He has been part of the interpack team since 2005 and was already responsible for interpack 2017 at an operational level as Deputy Director. During this time, he has been involved in many of interpack's defining themes, such as Save Food and the special shows under the "innovationparc" label.
The upcoming interpack in Düsseldorf has been postponed from its original date in May 2020 to the following year due to the coronavirus pandemic. It will now take place from February 25 to March 03, 2021.
Messe Düsseldorf relies on a hygiene concept to protect exhibitors and visitors. "interpack is the most important event in the international packaging industry and an important driver for a successful future for the companies involved, especially in times of crisis. We are therefore doing everything we can to live up to this responsibility and at the same time ensure the best possible health protection for people on our exhibition grounds," emphasizes Thomas Dohse.
