Hunkeler Innovationdays 2019 – Day 3 · Lucerne · Switzerland
Our last day in Lucerne – and still capturing happy faces wherever we go. Great deals announced and as CEO Michel Hunkeler tells us “Everybody anticipated a faster growth with Inkjet and were wrong, but now the technology has matured, the quality of print, binding, and embellishment is ready, and the market is ready to invest.” Always interesting to follow statements like this and we will, of course, check up on this in the future as well.
For INKISH.TV this is over and out from Hunkeler Innovationdays 2019 – it was great, it was fun, we learned a lot, and as always great to meet good friends from all over the world!









Hans Gut · Chief Marketing Officer · Hunkeler
Even for CMO Hans Gut, the Müller Martini acquisition of Hunkeler came as a surprise but was a logical step in a time when consolidations are part of company growth. With a vast potential for both companies, the future is bright. Hans Gut, several times in the interview, emphasizes that Hunkeler will keep also working with competitors to Müller Martini - respecting the legacy and the people - and, of course, once again, a firm commitment to Hunkeler Innovationdays that takes place next time as an even bigger event in February 2025. Great talking to Hans Gut and also getting some commitments for the future.
