PIAA says its PrintEx stand will be the centre for information and knowledge that businesses need to prosper in today’s changing and competitive environment. Speaking ahead of PrintEx, which is set to open its doors this Wednesday at Sydney Olympic Park, Joe Kowalewski, Printing Industries national director, communication, technology and creative services, says it is the association’s aim to make its stand the focal point of information to help its members.
Kowalewski says, “We want to help our members to be more profitable, and will be showcasing a significant array of ways that this can be achieved reinforcing what we provide and encouraging participation from companies yet to invest in membership. “By featuring the awards display in the same area we really have a one-stop information centre where the industry can congregate, see the industry’s best print work and learn a little more about other ways Printing Industries can help them.” Media Super is co-locating with PIAA along with The Value of Paper and Print campaign, Two Sides Australia, and Messe Düsseldorf from drupa, which is now in three-year cycles and held in 2016. Kowalewski says the association’s Commonwealth Bank Better Business partner will have staff on hand to discuss their discounted eftpos rate and other ways they can help businesses. He says an updated sustainable green print (SGP) environmental certification program will also be launched at the stand making the goal of increasing productivity and profitability by eliminating waste more accessible. Staff from Future Print will also be at PIAA’s stand to discuss apprenticeships and industry careers, business transformation, free benchmarking, workforce development and business model development. “We invite everyone to visit our information central stand in Hall 2, where there will be something to interest everyone,” Kowalewski says.
