Canon promoot print op Drupa

Canon gebruikt zijn imaging ervaring om het wereldleiderschap in productie print te claimen.

Canon heeft een markt segement van 60% op het terrein van industrieel inkjet print. Na de overname van OCE is de marktpositie versterkt en claimt het bedrijf nu de nummer 1 op het gebied van digital print te zijn.

Technologie is niet genoeg. We zullen de waarde van print moeten aantonen.

Canon stelt dat print een intelligent medium is dat de creativiteit stimuleert.

Met hashtag #Unleashprint gaat Canon campagne voeren om de waarde van print aan te tonen. De campagne is gebaseerd op drie pijlers: technologische innovatie, zakelijke modellen en inspiratie.

Deze drie pijlers zijn ook op de Drupa stand te herkennen. Ook zijn er speciale klantevenementen en zelfs evenementen voor de klant van de klant.
