Satoshi Mochida, representative director, president and CEO of Komori has announced that his company is opting out of the drupa 2021 exhibition to be held on 20 – 30 April 2021. The decision to opt out of the exhibition is made in response to the continued raging of the novel coronavirus and its serious impact on the economy of both developed and emerging countries.

“While an extremely unusual circumstance prevents Komori from participating in the drupa 2021, our plan is to launch an array of new products and services in the days to come, through open house events and active participation at regional exhibitions,” said Mochida.

Komori is the fourth company to opt-out of the postponed drupa 2021 event scheduled to take place from 20 to 30 April 2021. Heidelberg, Bobst and Xerox have already announced that they will not be taking part. There are some other companies that are in a wait and watch mode.
