Konica Minolta Business Solutions (UK) Ltd has announced that it is sponsoring The Strategic Mailing Partnership Networking & Award Evening, which takes place on 26th September at the Steel Yard in London.
This annual event hosted by The Strategic Mailing Partnership (SMP), a professional body that represents and protects the interests of printers and mailing houses in the UK, will bring the mailing supply chain together for an evening of industry recognition and to celebrate the best of the best.
The UK mailing sector is showing strong signs that direct mail continues to be a powerful channel for consumer engagement. In quarterly figures published by JICMAIL, the UK provider of audience measurement data for direct mail, 40% of website visits triggered by direct mail converted into online purchases.
Konica Minolta Business Solutions (UK) Ltd has a long proven pedigree working closely with print companies throughout the UK, with its portfolio of hardware, software and services that include the AccurioPress range (including the C7100 with its intelligent automation and enhanced finishing capabilities) and AccurioPro Variable Data Printing tools.
Lucy Swanston, Chair of The Strategic Mailing Partnership, commented. “”On behalf of the SMP board, we are delighted that Konica Minolta is supporting this year’s SMP Annual Networking and Awards Evening. To ensure that the mailing industry continues to sustainably retain and grow its volume, it is imperative that the entire supply chain collaborates to inspire, innovate, and educate mail producers, print managers and agencies. We are grateful for Konica Minolta’s support, along with our other sponsors in sharing this vision.”
Malcolm Smith, Category Manager Professional Print at Konica Minolta Business Solutions (UK) Ltd, stated, “We are proud to support the SMP in showcasing the talent and potential of the vibrant UK mailing sector. Konica Minolta provides a truly end-to-end solution that enables printers and mailing houses to produce high-quality, personalised and tactile content that engages with recipients and helps businesses to achieve their campaign objective.”
