- Live, interactive webinars featuring real-time demonstrations of Canon technologies and solutions for print and packaging professionals.
- Designed to help African print businesses unlock new revenue streams, improve efficiency, and adapt to evolving market demands.
Canon Central and North Africa (https://www.Canon-CNA.com) has introduced the “Beyond Limits” B2B PRO Live Webinar Series, a new initiative aimed at supporting the growth of Africa’s print and packaging sectors. Launched in March 2026, the series brings print businesses from across the continent together through live, interactive sessions that provide direct access to Canon’s technical expertise, production technologies and solutions.
Meeting Industry Challenges
The launch responds to growing demands across Africa’s printing and packaging sectors for short-run packaging, on-demand publishing, and higher-value print applications.
As client expectations shift toward faster turnaround, greater customisation, and more flexibility, print businesses are under increasing pressure to adapt their production capabilities and unlock new growth opportunities. At the same time, print companies across Africa are navigating a rapidly changing commercial environment, where clients expect faster turnaround, more customised services, and greater flexibility. Rising competition is intensifying these challenges, pushing businesses to adopt innovative technologies that enable more efficient and responsive operations.
Tushar Vashnavi, B2B Business Unit Director at Canon Central and North Africa, said, “The print and packaging industry is evolving significantly. Businesses need practical ways to stay competitive and unlock new opportunities. At Canon, we are committed to being a long-term partner to the sector. With initiatives like the ‘Beyond Limits’ B2B PRO Live Webinar Series, we are providing professionals direct access to innovation and real-world expertise.”
