The event, which is slated to return on 22 June, will feature panel discussions from printers, equipment vendors and book publishers, and will focus on the trends and opportunities in digital book manufacturing.

The line-up for the panel discussions has yet to be confirmed although Interquest said it would provide updates via its website, with some speakers expected to be confirmed by next week.

Interquest will also present key results from its latest research in the digital book printing market in North America and Europe.

According to Interquest's Annick Boizard, last year's event attracted around 120 delegates and a similar number are expected to attend this year.

Registration for the London Digital Book Printing Forum costs £235, which includes breakfast, lunch and refreshments as well as the full-day seminar.

Interquest director Tony Cobrin said: "Digital printing is playing an ever-increasing role as publishers and printers work to improve the process of producing books and efficiently distributing them to the market.

"We're excited to again host this event where leading book printers and publishers, suppliers, influencers, and other major players of the book industry will share their experiences, present their latest developments, discuss hot topics and challenges, and provide their vision of the future."
