Trends Talks
In June 2020 Packaging Première launched a series of webinars entitled “Trends Talks”, inspired by the research commissioned by the event organizer and carried out through interviews with some of the most authoritative opinion leaders, brands and designers belonging to the luxury packaging community.
The research summarized the trends in the packaging of high-end products, providing a complete overview of all areas of packaging.
Each webinar is dedicated to a single sector or a specific topic. It is a meeting point for the community and a virtual place to exchange ideas and take inspiration.

21 January // Realizzare una strategia di marketing vincente attraverso packaging, shopper, espositori - h 10.30
Se la progettazione del packaging non può prescindere dalla valutazione delle esigenze dettate dalla logistica, un altro aspetto importante è trovare una linea identificativa unica che compendi materiali di packaging, forme, grafica, shopping bag e materiale POP. Solo attraverso una scelta altamente coerente si raggiungerà l’obiettivo di aumentare la coscienza e conoscenza del marchio presso il proprio pubblico. Ciò non si limita a considerare solo gli aspetti grafici, ma trova particolare risalto nelle scelte delle forme, dei materiali che ovviamente devono fondersi in un tutt’uno con il prodotto.

Il packaging non è solo un contenitore ma un canale di marketing da sfruttare al meglio per catturare clienti.
