Spanning two half-day sessions, Unboxing Live will deliver a high-impact program of market insights, real-world success stories, and expert-led sessions across four curated tracks: Packaging Trends, Design & Quality, Compliance & Sustainability, and End-to-End Integration.
 
More than 30 speakers from across the print and packaging industry will be presenting, including representatives from Mintel, Eli Lilly, Recyda and more, as well as experts from all corners of the global Esko business. Attendees will get a thorough and honest view of how today’s biggest forces, from AI and automation to global sustainability mandates, are signposting the future of packaging and labeling through 2026 and beyond.
 
“The world over, brand owners and their supply chains are under the same shared pressures,” said Jan De Roeck, Marketing Director, Industry Relations at Esko. “They need to work faster, plan smarter, and put sustainability front and center – all without making compromises. It’s a big ask.
 
“Unboxing Live is our answer to that challenge,” said Jan. “We’ve created space for the entire packaging ecosystem - brands, converters, designers, technologists, marketers and decision-makers - to come together, compare notes, and leave smarter. It’s a knowledge exchange, a strategy session, and a technology masterclass all rolled into one. Whether you’re looking to cut lead times, improve quality, streamline compliance, explore the very latest Esko technology or understand where packaging and labeling are heading next, this event will help you do it with confidence.”
 
The agenda spans over 20 sessions tailored to professionals at every level, from creative and marketing teams through to production specialists and supply chain leaders. Keynotes from industry thought leaders will explore emerging trends, such as how packaging is becoming a driver of brand innovation, and what 2026’s most successful packaging strategies will look like. Other sessions will showcase the latest technology in action, from AI-powered artwork management and content automation to cloud-based compliance solutions and sustainable print innovations. Practical panels will also unpack regulatory readiness, recyclability mandates, and the evolving role of the artwork manager.
 
“Insight alone isn’t enough, it’s how you put it into action,” continued Jan. “A key focus of Unboxing Live is making sure attendees leave with real, practical takeaways they can apply the very next day. As a global business working across thousands of packaging workflows, we gather market intelligence quickly. This event is about distilling that insight into tangible guidance, shared openly with the people who need it most.”
 
Held online and accessible from anywhere, Unboxing Live is designed to empower attendees with the insights, tools, and community needed to stay competitive in a rapidly shifting industry.
