Print Media Industry Futures:
Challenges and Opportunities
A Printing Symposium for Leaders in the Printing Industry

November 4 - 6, 2003
Rochester, NY

In this second annual Printing Industry Center Symposium and Planning Meeting, invited participants learned about and discussed the research conducted at the Center over the past year and planned for the coming year of research and activities.

Center researchers presented their findings from the second year of the Center’s applied research agenda. The research agenda, established through collaboration between the Center and Industry Partners, addresses highly relevant and critical issues that the printing industry is facing in the turbulent and highly competitive markets of today.

Industry Partners provided feedback on the draft research monographs provided to Industry Partners in advance of the symposium. Final research monographs will be published in early 2004 on a rolling basis.

The final day of this event was a planning meeting for Industry Partner representatives to work with Center researchers to shape the research agenda for the coming year. Invited participants for this half-day planning session worked with the Center to review the findings and proposed research to establish an agenda that will focus on immediate industry issues and needs.

Information on each of the presentations is available on the Agenda and Presentations page.
