Key takeaways : The print industry is on the verge of a paradigm shift driven by agentic AI, which will dismantle the "silos" separating it from the integrated digital commerce world. The traditional sales model is set to be replaced by a fully automated marketplace where AI assistants make purchasing decisions, based on TRUST, compliance, and real-time data.  For print businesses, this is a pivotal moment that demands a strategic commitment to becoming a transparent, trusted, and digitally accessible partner. Failing to invest in the data structure and API infrastructure to become "queryable" risks obsolescence.  While challenging, this evolution presents a powerful opportunity to redefine print's value, enhance efficiency, and prove its indispensable role in a digital-first world.  The time to prepare is now, as this future is expected to materialize within the next 12 to 24 months. 💬 Working on this?

🎥 Why Is KATUN betting on (Office) Print(ers)?

🎥 Video version Why Is Katun Betting on (Office) Print — and on a New Breed of Hardware Printers? In a world quick to label print as a declining or even dying industry, Katun is taking a very different stance. Instead of stepping back, they are doubling down—investing, innovating, and actively shaping the future of office printing. In episode 18, we explore this strategic direction through insights from Heidi Boller, former GM, and Cinzia Gandini, the new General Manager for EMEA. Together, they outline how Katun is navigating today’s market challenges and turning them into opportunities, guided by a clear focus on innovation, sustainability, total cost of ownership, and strong dealer partnerships. Katun’s move into the office printing segment is not a gamble - it’s a calculated response to an evolving market.  They are not simply betting on print; they are positioning themselves as a key force in what comes next for the (office) printing industry. Hence, print is back - and Katun is proving it.
