When I told my circle of printer friends I would be blogging Xerox's Premier Partners Congress during Graph Expo, the common response was, What's that?

Beyond telling them it was a meeting of Xerox's customers that are innovators in digital printing, I had no idea.

This morning Tom Wetjen, VP of Xerox Worldwide Graphic Communications Industry shared Xerox's vision for the Premier Partners Program:

Create a global, cross-segmented Community of Practice for networking and knowledge sharing. Establish a direct-line, two-way privileged communications channel. And maintain an infrastructure to facilitate business sharing

Sharing Knowledge

The Premier Partners Program shares knowledge through:

• Communication Programs – distribution of print and electronic newsletters.

• Premier Partners Community Web Site - a knowledge base of case studies, industry information from industry associations and trade groups. See the Xerox Graphic Arts Premier Partners website for more info.

• Information about Xerox and Partner Offerings - Access to Xerox's ProfitAccelerator toolset.

• In the Balance Blog - an ongoing discussion of innovation across the graphic communication industry.
