Canon Solutions America provided that perfect opportunity for 40 attendees last month by hosting its "When Print Meets Multi-Channel" event at SG360°, a direct mail and marketing solutions specialist based here. Following a networking dinner the night before, the day-long program kicked off with welcome comments from Robert Radzis, chief customer officer at SG360°, and a market overview from Francis McMahon, vice president of marketing, Canon Solutions America, Production Printing Solutions. McMahon revealed that its U.S. customers printed 68 billion pages in 2012 and that, as of last year, Canon Solutions America holds a 41 percent market share in continuous-feed color inkjet press placements in the United States and Western Europe. He also pointed to Canon's long-term commitment to product innovation, noting that, for the past 20 years, Canon has remained among the top five corporate recipients of U.S. patents.
