"NEOS was one of the main sponsors for the 𝗗𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗦𝘂𝗿𝗳𝗮𝗰𝗲𝘀 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 organized by Technical Conference Management in Berlin this week. We had many good conversations about our technology, our inkjet printers for décor papers, edge-band and panels found a lot of interest, but also digital metal decoration was part of our conversations. Thank you Kurt Fischer for the perfect organization and for finding an attractive venue in the center of the “Hauptstadt”, Berlin!"
