Welcome to the NON-EVENT 2026

Since the dawn of industrialization, cities have attracted an increasing number of people. Today, approximately 55% of the global population resides in urban areas, but this number is expected to increase to 68-70% by 2050. 

Between 6.5 and 7.0 billion people will live in cities, and this will change everything, from how we live and consume to how societies evolve and adapt. 

With printing technologies expanding into materials printing, decor, clothing, electronics, and functional printing, this presents a tremendous opportunity for the printing industry.

Get a sneak peek into the future at the NON-EVENT 2026 with speakers, round-tables, and networking like never before. This time we have an absolute max capacity of 150 people, so limited seats, and this time quite a few new “inventions,” so it’s time to reserve the dates, January 21st/22nd 2026. 

It will be worth your time, and rest assured that networking remains the most important aspect of the event.

We are all looking forward to seeing you in Copenhagen. The venue is fantastic, the program is our best to date, and the only thing missing to make it a 100% guarantee is YOU.

Till then,
/Morten B. Reitoft

See you at the NON-EVENT 2027 - January 20th/21st 2027.
Venue and theme to be disclosed.

The New Beacons of America

These four people are all industry beacons - first movers, people who understand print, leadership, technology, and all of them are our new beacons on INKISH. It’s great to have people with vast industry backgrounds, but we believe that having people who work in a printing company daily, who invest, sometimes right and sometimes wrong, are the ones who can be your inspiration.

At the NON-EVENT 2026, you will meet Paul Gardner from AlphaGraphics, Salt Lake City; Rosemarie Breske Garvey from Blooming Color, Chicago; Paul Hudson from Hudson Printing, Salt Lake City; and Adam Seiz from Bennett Graphics, Tucker, Georgia.

Meet them on INKISH.NEWS, sharing their views on investments, successes, and failures. They will provide guidance not on specific equipment, but on the process of finding the right equipment - and, of course, how they got to the decision and what they ultimately invested in. 

This is leadership. This is education, and this is designed to move printing companies forward.

Venue

As part of the Urbanization journey, finding the right venue is important. Carlsbergbyen (byen means city) is a new part of Copenhagen, built where the original Carlsberg brewery once stood. Carlsberg Brewery was located where Carlsberg operates its experience center, brewery for its luxury and special beers, and our hotel is named after the brewer Carl, who founded Carlsberg in 1847. His wife, Ottilia, was a creative woman, and much of her creative work can be seen in the common areas of the boutique hotel. 

The hotel is in the upper class, very industrial, and built using the frames of the old bottling plant, giving guests a unique urban experience.

We hope you like our choice, despite its higher price tag compared to last year's hotel. This is a unique experience, and we have negotiated the price down from €607 to €428 for two nights, including breakfast, regardless of whether you enjoy the rooms alone or choose to bring your spouse.

Copenhagen is the capital of Denmark. Many direct flights from Europe make it easy to reach Copenhagen. However, from the US and Asia, you often have to have at least one stopover. 

NEW: SAS has been partly acquired by KLM/Air France and codeshares with DELTA, so more routes directly from North America to Copenhagen.

Examples: Seattle, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Minneapolis, Chicago, Toronto, Montreal, Atlanta, Miami, Washington D.C., Philadelphia, New York, and Boston.

Using the website www.flightsfrom.com you can easily find connection points to any major hub in Europe - like London, Amsterdam, Paris, Munich, or Frankfurt - but you can also find departure cities close to you with direct flights.
