Stating that they left behind another edition of SIGN İstanbul that exceeded the expectations of the participants and visitors this year, Seda Bozkurt, Director of Tarsus Exhibitions, said, "SIGN İstanbul was once again the leading platform for the industrial advertising and digital printing industry in our region. There was a great interest, particularly from abroad. The number of international visitors increased by 19% compared to previous year. This is a significant added-value both for the sector and Turkish economy. SIGN İstanbul continues to expand the sector. Most of our participants reserved their place for the 2024 edition while the fair was still in progress. Next year, SIGN İstanbul will be celebrating its 25th year. As a fair brand that has reached the quarter-century mark, we will further accomplish many more achievements together with our sector."

The biggest trade fair of the industrial advertising and digital printing industry in the region, SIGN İstanbul opened its doors for the 24th time at Tüyap Fair and Exhibition Center in Beylikdüzü on September 21-24. Organized by Tarsus Fuarcılık with the motto "SHINE YOUR SIGN" this year, more than 300 participants, including the leading companies of the sector in Türkiye and global brands, met with nearly 25,000 professionals. Also hosting the global launches of brands, the latest digital printing machines, textile printing machines, transfer printing and screen printing machines, laser machines, CNC routers and milling machines, advertising & printing materials, paints, LED systems, industrial advertisement products, visual communication and display products, 3D printing systems, and many more were showcased at the exhibition.

Mrs. Bozkurt said, "The participants and visitors are pleased with the synergy brought by PROMOGIFT İstanbul"

In a four-day event, the SIGN İstanbul took place at Tüyap Fair and Exhibition Center on the same dates as PROMOGIFT İstanbul, the Corporate Promotion and Advertising Products Fair, which opened its doors as a standalone event for the first time this year. Noting that more than 5,000 visitors attended PROMOGIFT İstanbul, Mrs. Bozkurt said that the total number of international and domestic visitors increased by half this year. Highlighting that the two complementary organizations created remarkable synergy, Mrs. Bozkurt said, "Our participants and visitors had the opportunity to check out the innovations in digital printing technologies while simultaneously seeing the examples of corporate promotion and advertising, which is one of the most important areas of application of these technologies."

Achieving an overwhelming success with hundreds of millions of dollars of trade this year, SIGN İstanbul will celebrate its 25th anniversary at Tüyap Fair and Exhibition Center in Beylikdüzü between October 31 - November 03, 2024.
