Distribute Globally, Print Locally: Insights from Publishers on Cross-Border Printing
Wednesday, 11th Mar, 10:00–10:45 am, International Stage
Ashley Gordon, Vice President, Digital Print Solutions, Sheridan (moderator)
Russ Seton, Senior Director; Global Inventory Operations, Wiley
Cathy Felgar, Executive Director, Publishing Operations, Princeton University Press
With the advent of government regulations, carbon reduction initiatives, and tariffs combined with the continued risk of supply chain disruptions and rising costs, publishers require new production strategies that respond to customer demand reliably, efficiently, and sustainably wherever that demand may be. Such strategies that are successful combine future-focused technology with old-fashioned partnerships. Sophisticated workflows and advancements in inkjet production are enabling printers to meet publishers where they are to provide globally distributed production for local channel consumption, in many case for titles not considered for POD before. This session of publisher and printer partners will explore the benefits, challenges, and best practices of distributed production from a multi-market perspective to help publishers who want to develop their own “Print Local” strategies.
