The first XMPie Users’ Group board meeting was held on June 13th, during which board members discussed the mission, values, and goals of the Group, defining a threefold mission: 1. To provide and encourage the exchange of information on variable data printing and personalized one-to-one direct marketing campaigns, specifically as related to the products, services, technologies, and business processes required to successfully implement these activities. 2. To actively and visibly foster dialogue between XMPie, its partners and the XMPie user community regarding the direction of best practices, products, services, and/or technologies. 3.
