“CardTREX in Europe is the biggest and most important event for the card industry to educate yourself and your people,” said Michael Dorner, past president of ICMA and CEO & founder of Variuscard. “On the European side, there’s always a lot of insight with vendors, with partners. We meet there, we see the factories, we learn so much. And the upcoming one is going to be at Otto Künnecke. I can’t wait to be there. I really, really want to see that.”
