HSP First Time in Switzerland – Why Did it Take so Long!

The 2025 edition of the High Security Printing™ EMEA conference was located, for the first time in its history, in Switzerland, in the picturesque city of Basel. The sell-out event attracted 265 delegates, from 117 organisations spanning 44 countries. 38% of the organisations were from government (central banks, issuing authorities) or state printworks.

The first day of the event was handed over to masterclass workshops that addressed two of the major issues facing the industry at the moment – the impact of AI in secure documents, and optimising the cash cycle in a changing payment environment.

During the two-day conference, nearly 40 presentations were delivered, with the programme comprised of six focused sessions split evenly across currency and identity documents in the EMEA region.
