PRINTITRESELLER.UK 3 The 2023 PrintIT Awards is almost SOLD OUT. If you’d like to grab one of the last remaining seats call Ethan, Neil or Jeff on 01732 759725, download the booking form at www.printitawards.co.uk or email [email protected]. See page 22 for another look at the shortlists and I look forward to revealing the winners and celebrating your successes on the night. This issue features my favourite Vox Pop of the year – print predictions. Part one highlights cloud computing, cybersecurity, AI and machine learning as technologies to watch. There is also a general consensus that print volumes will continue to decline, organisations will favour A4 versus A3 devices and will continue to move toward managed services as they continue their digital transformation. Part two will run next issue. Also in this issue, Steve Pearce, Head of Marketing at Kyocera Document Solutions UK, picks the work tools he uses every day and couldn’t do his job without (page 18). This month’s Q&A is with Michael Cole, Managing Director, Equipment Rentals & Sales Ltd, and PITR spent 60 seconds with Peter Lunn, Senior Category Manager and Managed Print Services Lead, UK, TD SYNNEX.
