Infigo, PrintIQ, GMG Color, Enfocus and Printess will come together in Leeds on 17 June for Create and Automate: Where Print Connects, a half day event that demonstrates a complete, integrated print workflow live in front of an invited audience of print business owners and production directors.
The event is the second in the Create and Automate series, following a sold out session in London in January 2026.
Rather than presenting individual platform demonstrations, the five partners will run a single connected workflow from end to end, showing how a print job moves from web to print storefront through MIS, preflight, colour management and personalisation to finished printed output, with no manual intervention between each stage.
Attendees will see in practice how connected systems reduce manual touchpoints, eliminate errors before they reach the press and allow print businesses to scale without adding headcount.
The day includes a networking lunch on the rooftop terrace, giving attendees direct access to specialists from all five companies. It closes with the Perky Printers activation, in which attendees are transformed into personalised, historically styled printed characters using live personalisation technology, taking home a printed keepsake produced on the day.
‘I have been in the print industry for over 40 years and I have never seen an event that showed the whole connected workflow live, in a room small enough to have a real conversation,’ said David McGuiness, partner manager at Infigo and founder of the Create and Automate series. ‘I promise it is unlike anything you have been to before. Because I spent 40 years looking for it and couldn’t find it.’
Create and Automate is free to attend, but limited to 30 places.
