Hosted by the organisation’s head of associations and technical lead Graeme Richardson-Locke, Fespa said the series will offer the opportunity for printers to hear from industry experts on relevant topics that sit under four content pillars: process control, sustainability, colour management, and automation.

In the first webinar, which is taking place tomorrow at 11am BST, Richardson-Locke will be joined by Paul Sherfield, Fespa colour expert and owner of The Missing Horse Consultancy, as well as Craig Dennis, a reprographics specialist and founder of the Colour Den.

The trio will discuss customer satisfaction and how printers can meet and exceed expectations. They’ll consider how printers can be successful in ensuring consistency, clarity and measurement, and highlight the importance of colour management workflows.

On Tuesday 1 June 2021 at 11am BST, the second webinar will focus on the print industry standards, available certifications, and why they’re valuable.

Richardson-Locke will be again joined by Sherfield, as well as Laurel Brunner, managing director of pre-press and publishing consultancy Digital Dots, to offer advice on how printers can implement best practice processes to meet industry standards and deliver premium quality products and services.

Subsequent webinars will take place every two weeks, with more information at: fespa.com/en/news-media/coffee-break.

Richardson-Locke said: “Fespa’s Coffee Break webinars are centred around Fespa’s core purpose – to educate, inspire, connect, and expand the speciality print community, and we’re encouraged by the positive feedback from delegates on the webinars’ role in enabling printers to make business decisions that will fuel their future growth.”

Fespa said the second series has been launched in response to the positive feedback and interest from attendees of the first eight webinars, which took place from October 2020 to March 2021.

The episodes attracted 1,085 attendees in total, from 130 countries, with more than 75% giving “very positive” feedback.

The webinars are free to attend and attendees have the opportunity to ask questions to the experts.
