The FINAT European Label Forum (ELF) 2026 will take place from May 27 to 29 in Seville,
Spain, bringing together label converters, suppliers and industry experts for three days of
strategic discussion, peer networking and industry insight.
Organised by FINAT, the European label industry association, the annual forum is tailored
for owners and senior managers of label printing companies. The 2026 programme will focus
on market dynamics, sustainability-driven innovation, leadership development and emerging
technologies including AI in label production. Panel discussions, workshops and dialogue
sessions will encourage open exchange among participants.
Dana Kilarska, FINAT Vice President and CEO of label printer Purgina, underlines the
forum’s value: “In challenging times, the European Label Forum helps provide clarity on how
the market is evolving. It allows us to exchange ideas with peers, gain perspective from
industry leaders, and better understand how emerging technologies can improve efficiency
and decision-making.”
Kilarska also highlights the forum’s role in leadership transition within family and ownermanaged
businesses, describing it as a platform that builds confidence and equips the next
generation to guide companies into their future. Attending the FINAT European Label Forum
is an opportunity to learn from industry leaders, exchange ideas with peers, and bring fresh
inspiration to strengthen our company‘s long-term growth.
