Inkjet Summit Starts Monday
More than 125 print executives — including about two dozen in-plant managers — are packing their bags right now for the 14th annual Inkjet Summit, which will kick off Monday evening in San Antonio, Texas, at the Hyatt Regency Hill Country Resort and Villas. This year's Summit is the largest one yet.
The IJS 2025 opening session.
Presented annually by PRINTING United Alliance, Printing Impressions, and In-plant Impressions, the Inkjet Summit is an invitation-only, hosted event specifically designed for senior-level managers and business executives at printing companies and in-plants who want to understand technology trends and make investment decisions around production inkjet printing technology.
Bob Neubauer moderates a panel discussion at the 2025 Inkjet Summit featuring inkjet users from Intermountain Health, East Baton Rouge Schools, Jurupa USD and the State of Tennessee.
Conference Chair Marco Boer, VP of I.T. Strategies, will start the summit Monday night with an information-packed keynote focusing on reasons for optimism in the document printing industry.
Tuesday will begin with a session on artificial intelligence and how it is impacting inkjet. Other sessions throughout the summit will cover finishing systems, recruitment and retention of employees, and expansion opportunities.
For three days, in-plant managers will mingle with printing company owners and senior-level operations managers, sharing real-life experiences and enjoying a nonstop program of keynotes, user panel discussions, and expert consultant presentations. Sponsors will also present in-plant case studies featuring successful inkjet implementations.
