Q&A With Eric Hawkinson, Director of Marketing, at Canon Solutions America, PPS
A funny thing happened on the way to GRAPH EXPO this year...No, this isn’t the start of a joke, it’s actually the start of a movement! thINK First is the inaugural educational event for inkjet created by Canon Solutions America (CSA) customers, and sponsored by CSA. The timing puts me in New York, Sept. 8-10, and then I head directly to Chicago to get The Printerverse ready for GRAPH EXPO. But, travel logistics and 500 pounds of luggage aside, I cannot pass up the opportunity to attend and share what I learn with you, and I am quite honored to be invited.
I’ve only been speaking with Eric and his team over at CSA for a short time as we prepare for GRAPH EXPO (CSA is in the Printerverse Alliance with Canon U.S.A.!) and talk about thINK First. What I have learned about Eric is pretty simple—he is real.
