As print businesses in Australia and the rest of the world grapple with the effects of COVID-19 on their businesses, Print Media Centr and its technology partner INKISH have delivered on some help to aid these businesses through the trialling times.
They have launched an online event, #ElevatePrint, focussing on three days of free sessions and special events designed to help elevate business and customer relationships. Click here to register.
All sessions will run from August 25 to August 27, between 10am and 2pm ET. Everyone who registers will get replay links emailed to them, so Australian attendees that are unable to view the live sessions because of time differences can benefit too.
Deborah Corn, intergalactic ambassador to The Printerverse at Print Media Centr and founder of Project Peacock, will be the speaker at the first session on August 25 at 10am ET, talking about ideas and intel for planning your pandemic print prospecting and new business development.
She will also moderate an online panel around creating a diverse and sustainable future for the print industry, featuring WDB Marketing CEO Keeana Barber, DG3 division president Joe Lindfeldt, and Quad enterprise solutions vice-president Paul Nowak.
In addition to sessions that explore how to open up new business opportunities and elevate customer relationships, analysis of segments following COVID-19, the rundown on equipment that would have been launching at tradeshows this year and more, the online event will be tackling important issues such as attracting young talent to the industry and creating a sustainable future for print.
Other speakers at the online event include high-profile thought leaders like former Curator of the Nobel Prize Museum, creativity expert, and CEO of Combiner Tobias Degsell, and former Xerox and HP executives Hélène Blanchette and Shuchi Sarkar.
“#ElevatePrint will provide unfiltered and time-critical information to printers across the globe in regard to raising their print game and adding to their services to meet the new needs of their customers, prospects and the marketplace,” Corn said.
“We will also focus on creating a sustainable future for the printing industry through diversity and inclusion.
“With the significant time difference between A/NZ and the US, we will send replay links and information about the sessions and presenters to all who have registered and everyone can watch when it’s convenient.
“Working for the greater good of the print industry is a shared commitment of Print Media Centr and INKISH, and CEO Morten Reitoft will bring his team and technology to the table to make the online experience more interesting and interactive.”
