OBAL ROKU SUMMIT 2026
The day the Czech and Slovak packaging market came together.
2026 theme: Packaging as a strategic decision
OBAL ROKU SUMMIT 2026 took place on 15 October 2026 in Prague.
Thank you to our speakers, partners and all attendees for an inspiring day.
Packaging is no longer just a procurement line item. It's a strategic decision.
The packaging market is changing faster than ever. New regulation, cost pressure, retail requirements, recyclability, corporate responsibility, data and customer experience are fundamentally changing how companies design, buy, use and defend packaging.
Obal roku Summit 2026 connects companies that need to understand the new reality of the packaging market — and want to be where the contacts, decisions and opportunities arising from it are made.
Expert program during the day. Business networking in the afternoon. Obal roku Gala Evening at night.
Obal roku Summit 2026 is a new Czech–Slovak platform for the packaging market. It builds on the tradition of the Obal roku competition and expands it with an expert summit, networking, a partner zone and a gathering of companies that shape packaging in the years to come.
The summit is not just a showcase of trends. It is designed for companies that face real decisions: which packaging will make sense in regulatory, commercial, technological and economic terms.
Four key reasons to attend
- Czechia and Slovakia: two paths to PPWR — how both markets will deal with the same regulation.
- Who really sets the rules of the game today — the state, Brussels, retail, or the customer?
- Price, sustainability or performance? Panel discussions about the real priorities of the packaging market.
- 10 minutes to the point — an open six-person discussion without presentations, right at a cocktail table.
Obal roku Summit is designed for companies that want to understand packaging in a broader context — professionally, commercially and strategically.

The summit builds on the tradition of Obal roku
Obal roku has long connected packaging producers, brands, designers, retail, industry and an expert jury. The summit expands this authority into a full-day platform for companies that want to understand packaging in a broader context — from regulation through innovation to commercial impact.
For companies that decide on packaging — or influence those decisions.
The summit is designed for the entire packaging ecosystem. Not for passive listeners. For the people who handle design, production, procurement, use, regulation, communication or the business value of packaging.
