EFI has already started the registration countdown to its seventh annual Connect users’ conference taking place from April 30 to May 3, 2006, in the exclusive Venetian Resort, Las Vegas.
Based on past conferences, EFI expects more than 1000 attendees, including EFI customers, industry partners, media and analysts, to attend the conference. An estimated 160 sessions over the four days will offer expert level sessions on topics spanning from MIS executive tools, fulfillment and mailing operations as well as training sessions on maximising MIS system investment, focusing on areas such as report writing, finance, inventory management and estimating.
Vice president/general manager of Professional Print Application, Marc Olin, says this year there will also be practical sessions focused on growing business with super wide format digital inkjet printing, on demand digital printing and variable data printing.
“In this highly competitive market, every company needs to cut costs, reduce waste and simplify scheduling while at the same time keep an eye on what’s new in the market that will help them compete for new business and expand their value to existing customers,” says Olin. “The conference theme, Expand Your Opportunities, will set the tone for this year’s event that will be focused on presenting solutions and technologies to help every attendee think about new ways to expand and thrive, save costs and better serve their customers.”
