OPS 2020 in
Munich

On your marks, get set, go! Once again this year, the Online Print Symposium in Munich at the beginning of March was on the agenda for us. As in previous years, we were once again there as a premium partner and were able to present our "rissc universe" to around 300 visitors.

Although the omens for OPS 2020 were not necessarily positive due to the onset of the coronavirus crisis, how could it be otherwise? It was therefore all the nicer to discover many new faces among the visitors alongside many old acquaintances from the industry. With around 300 participants, the premises of the Infinity Hotel in Munich were once again well attended this year and provided the perfect backdrop for our now familiar blue "rissc universe". Visually, however, there was a small but no less important addition - bright green in the form of balloons now also adorned our stand, in addition to versions in blue, and already generated the first inquiries after just a few minutes.

The solution to the puzzle became obvious to anyone who looked at the additional color scheme and the printed logos. In addition to Shopify, a completely new logo, the printformer.io logo, was now also displayed there, as OPS was the perfect event for us to present our new app to a wider professional audience. Our CEO Alex Sperrfechter had already creatively revealed this to attentive visitors in the OPS teaser videos (click here for the VIDEO ) and those who wanted to have everything explained to them live afterwards had ample opportunity to do so.

Our printformer.io app, a version of our printformer specially tailored for seamless integration into Shopify, now combines the best of both worlds. After we implemented the first integration of this kind in the Shopify webshop of Logolini®Präsente at the end of last year(click here for the article), we will continue to rely on the innovative e-commerce platform Shopify as an e-commerce backbone in the future with its presentation at OPS 2020. The topic of transformation and digitalization has been a real challenge for many companies in the printing and media services industry, and not just since the current corona crisis. The crisis now clearly shows how important it is to deal with these issues in a future-oriented and sustainable manner. If not yesterday, then all the more so today. With the release of printformer.io, we give companies of all kinds the simple opportunity to overcome these previously insurmountable entry hurdles in the area of Web2Publish and support the process with this integration of the printformer software into Shopify, which can be realized in just a few steps. Anyone who wants and needs to take advantage of the signs of the times right now can set up their own store in just a few minutes and use the printformer.io app to place a professional print store with editor and print data upload on the market. Fast time-to-market without lengthy implementation processes has never been more in demand than now - as echoed by interested visitors to our stand at the Online Print Symposium. If you would like to find out more, you can obtain further information in advance at www.printformer.io.

For us, the days at the OPS in Munich were once again a complete success. The numerous positive feedback, the generally positive atmosphere and the many interesting discussions and inquiries optimistically round off the importance of this event for us. With the orientation of our new app, we have hit a nerve in the eyes of the industry, which represents a real option for many companies to maintain their future prospects. Reason enough for us to continue to impress with our passion for print, our experience in Wep2Print and Web2Publish and with customer-oriented software solutions. We are already looking forward to 2021 and the next OPS in Munich
