New PIA/GATF advisor for digital print business services

Printing industries of America/Graphic Arts Technical Foundation (PIA/GATF) has announced that John M. Hamm has joined their consultant line-up as senior advisor to PIA/GATF for digital printing.

Hamm said: ‘My tenure as a commercial print provider, combined with my experience in supplier-side marketing, enables me to provide clients with in-depth market knowledge, objective analysis, and client-specific guidance toward market-making business results.’

During his 20-year tenure with Balmar Printing & Graphics, a graphic arts service provider in the Washington/Baltimore region, Hamm successfully grew the business through diversified offerings coupled with the company’s traditional, but still vital, sheetfed and non-heatset web-offset business.
