TEWKSBURY, Massachusetts – CRON-ECRM LLC, a newly formed joint venture, today announced they will be hosting Dr. Joe Webb at their grand opening on Tuesday, March 17th. Dr. Webb is one of the graphic arts industry’s best known consultants, forecasters, and commentators, as well as the director of a well-known Economics and Research Center.

His book, Disrupting the Future: Uncommon Wisdom for Navigating Print’s Challenging Marketplace, written with Richard Romano, has been described as “the manifesto for a new generation of printers.” It is the largest circulating graphic arts book of the last decade or more, and was translated into both Japanese and Portuguese.

On March 17th, CRON-ECRM will culminate months of planning and preparation with the Grand Opening of the new venture’s North American offices.
