Be Future Proof at Connect 09

InfoTrend’s group director, Barbara Pellow and industry commentator, Andrew Tribute, to headline this year’s Connect09.

Targeted at the print and communication services industries, Connect 09 will be held on Monday 19 and Tuesday 20 October at the Sofitel Sydney Wentworth Hotel with the theme ‘Be Future Proof’.

For Pellow (pictured below), the two-day conference will help companies make the move from ‘surviving to thriving’.

“InfoTrends provides research, analysis, forecasts and advice to help clients understand market trends, identify opportunities and develop strategies to grow their businesses,” she said. “That’s exactly what we will be sharing with attendees at Connect09 Australia.”

Andrew Tribute believes that the Australian graphic arts industry has been at the forefront of implementing new technologies.

“The innovation shown and initiatives taken by Australian providers of print and associated services are on par with countries such as the UK and USA,” he said.

“As a regular visitor to Australia … I have seen some dramatic changes in the industry over past years and predict we will have more changes in the next five years than we have seen in the past ten.”

Connect 09 will include six individual, repeatable tracks each day – twelve sessions in total. The sessions will cover the trends, challenges, pitfalls and general business issues with topics such as New Opportunities Everywhere, Thriving in an e-Commerce World and From Print Provider to Marketing Guru.
