Now in its third year, the FESPA Digital Print Awards recognises outstanding examples of innovation in digital wide-format printing across a broad spectrum of real-life applications. The competition is open to all printers in Europe, the Middle East and Africa, regardless of their choice of printer or substrate.

 FESPA Chief Executive Nigel Steffens said: "The FESPA Digital Print Awards have rapidly gathered momentum, tripling the volume of entries from the first year to the next. This staggering increase is a measure of how digital technology is penetrating the market, and the extent to which printers are now using digital daily to deliver creative solutions to their clients' briefs."

The categories have been consolidated for the 2009 competition, and are: Vehicles; Interior; Exterior; Packaging and Manufactured Goods; Textiles; and Fine Art.

Entries can be submitted online via the dedicated FESPA Digital Print Awards web site, www.fespadpa.com, or through the link on the FESPA web site at www.fespa.com. There is no need to submit physical samples of work, and entry is free of charge. The deadline for entries is Friday 30th January 2009. All entries can be viewed and rated through the online Gallery on the website.

The winners' work will be displayed at the third FESPA Digital exhibition, which takes place at the RAI exhibition centre in Amsterdam, Netherlands, from May 12 to 14, 2009. The winners will be presented with their awards at a VIP dinner event in Amsterdam during the exhibition. All winners will receive a flight to Amsterdam and one night's accommodation as part of their prize, along with promotional support from FESPA.
