Heidelberger Druckmaschinen AG (HEIDELBERG) has announced the return of its industry event, SHIFT, scheduled to take place 6–7 October 2026. This year’s international summit aims to outline the next chapter in print industry process innovation and digital transformation.
SHIFT 2026 will showcase real-world use cases to illustrate where customers stand today and paves the path to successful process digitalisation. The HEIDELBERG event aims to bridge the gap between current print shops and integrated, future-ready production workflows.
The two-day summit kicks off at halle02, located in downtown Heidelberg. The first day focuses on the current state and future potential of print shops. Here, attendees can listen to real-world success stories from print shops and gain valuable perspectives from prominent industry experts.
On the second day, the venue shifts to the HEIDELBERG Home of Print in Wiesloch-Walldorf. Attendees will gain hands-on experience through live demonstrations of end-to-end commercial, packaging, and label production solutions. Interactive breakout sessions will also offer detailed insights into crucial topics.
Building on the positive reception of the previous year’s summit, HEIDELBERG is moving forward with this successful format as anticipation builds across the global sector for SHIFT 2026.
