July 17, 2009

CHICAGO - Dscoop (Digital Solutions Cooperative), the independent community of HP Indigo users, has announced that Dscoop5, the organization’s fifth annual conference, will be held Feb. 18-20, 2010 at the Gaylord Texan Resort and Convention Center in Dallas, Texas.
Dscoop5 will have more than 90 sessions in business and sales, operations, labeling and packaging, and partner solution tracks. It will also have large-format sessions focused on helping commercial printers increase their service offerings and profit margins. There will also be scheduled and informal networking opportunities, including roundtables and practice sharing sessions for attendees to brainstorm ideas and share experiences about universal challenges such as improving productivity and reducing operating expenses.
Dscoop continues to expand internationally. Last year, more than 150 HP Indigo customers came from the Asia-Pacific and Latin America regions. The number is expected to increase to 300 for Dscoop5.
In addition to the conference, the Dscoop 2010 Partner Program has attracted vendors in the digital print industry. Twenty-five percent of the Partners from 2009 have already renewed, and 98 percent have indicated an intent to renew for 2010. GPA and AB Graphic International Inc. have signed up as Platinum Partners. Confirmed Gold Partners include Adobe, Domtar Corporation, Online Print Solutions and Rollem International. Confirmed Bronze Partners include Digilabs, FLEXcon, GMC Software Technology Inc., Great Reach Communications Inc., HubCast, Masterpiece Graphix, Michelman, Sappi Fine Paper, Tekra Corporation and Yupo Corporation America.
“Our Partners are an important part of the Dscoop community,” said Mark Sarpa, Dscoop5 sponsorship chairman and president of Progressive Solutions. “I’m looking forward to working with them to maximize the value of partnering with Dscoop—not only will we have additional exhibit hours at the 2010 conference, but we’ll also have more year-round opportunities for them to reach our members. We are limiting the number of Partners and expect to sell out again this year.”
Registration for Dscoop5 will open in September, and information will be added to www.dscoop.org as speakers and sessions are announced. For more information about the 2010 Partner Program, contact Dscoop Sales Manager Rebecca Baker at 312-673-5827.
