The four-day event is designed to help managers build, grow and drive their shops to success. It will feature three workshops and professional development sessions from industry expert Howie Fenton, who will cover topics like creating a road map for in-plant success, benchmarking performance and new pricing strategy for in plants.
Neubauer will cover some of the latest trends in the in-plant industry, drawn from several In-plant Impressions research reports, and focus on the convergence of technologies happening in the digital print world. He will share success stories from in-plants that have implemented new services and increased their relevance.
Attendees will hear about the University of Victoria’s success with wide-format printing, and Donna Cooper Horbelt will discuss her in-plant at the University of Texas Health Science Center Houston. There will also be roundtable discussions, a trade show showcasing new products and many networking opportunities.
