The Centre for Print Research (CFPR) at UWE Bristol announced the Papers on Paper Symposium, an academic and industry-focused event examining the role of paper as both a material and a communication medium in modern print. The symposium invites participants from across the print community, including researchers, practitioners, students, and industry leaders, to engage in discussions on material science, sustainable manufacturing, creative practice, and the evolving use of paper across digital and analogue processes.

Hosted on the UWE campus, the symposium continues the CFPR’s commitment to advancing knowledge in print and material innovation. Sessions are designed to showcase current research, highlight developments in paper engineering, and explore intersections between print technology, design, and sustainability. The gathering underscores the organisation’s goal of fostering collaboration between academic research and commercial practice.

The Papers on Paper Symposium also offers opportunities for networking, knowledge exchange, and exposure to emerging trends within the global print community. Registration is available through the UWE online portal, with additional information provided for attendees seeking to participate in presentations, workshops or panel discussions.
