ACUP Comes to Minneapolis
If Printers Ruled the World
ACUP 2013 got off to a great start when Tom de Ranitz, founder of Forte Consulting, took to the podium with his keynote, provocatively titled "If Printers Ruled the World." His point was that graphic arts professionals plan projects thoroughly, from beginning to end, before jumping into them. Printers are familiar with deadlines, limited resources and changing technologies, and organizational leaders can learn a lot from them. He encouraged attendees to make sure, at the very beginning of a project, that everyone who needs to be in the room is present.
