Mark Popp, VP of Technology, Research, and Development for Imagine was featured in the article, discussing the ways in which Imagine is working to attract younger talent to the print industry and leaning on automation to remain competitive.

Today we tell them what they need to make if they want to sell me that equipment,” he added.
