EFI™ (Nasdaq:EFII), has expanded the program for its annual Connect
Users' Conference (January 20-23, 2015) with a "fireside chat"
keynote featuring Thomas J. Quinlan III, president and CEO of
global integrated communication services provider RR Donnelley
& Sons Company (Nasdaq:RRD). Quinlan's EFI Connect conference
general session will take place January 21, 2015, at 8:30 a.m. at
The Wynn Las Vegas.
"It will be a privilege to hear from the chief executive of a
legendary organization that has thrived over its 150-year history
and continues to lead as the largest company in our industry," said
Guy Gecht, EFI's CEO. "Connect attendees will be inspired to hear
Tom's personal and professional story and learn how both he and RR
Donnelley have been able to adapt as the industry goes through
significant changes."
Appearing at number 268 on the Fortune 500 listing of the
country's largest corporations, Quinlan's company, RR Donnelley, is
the leading global graphic communications firm, with approximately
65,000 employees, annual revenues of nearly $11.5 billion, and more
than 500 locations around the world. The company also is one of the
largest users of EFI's products, with hundreds of EFI MIS/ERP and
web-to-print software, EFI Fiery® print server, and EFI VUTEk®
superwide-format printer installations across its global
locations.
Quinlan, a veteran print executive, joined RR Donnelley in
February 2004 as an executive vice president after serving in a
succession of senior executive management roles at Moore
Wallace.
Quinlan has an MBA in finance from St. John's University, and
received St. John's Alumni Achievement Medal in 2010. Pace
University, where Quinlan received a bachelor's degree in business
administration, conferred an honorary doctorate to him in 2009. The
Advisory Board of New York University's Graphic Communications
Management and Technology Program chose Quinlan to receive its 2011
Prism Award, which recognizes distinguished leadership in the
graphic communications media industry. In 2011 he also received
AJC's National Human Relations Award, which honors professional and
philanthropic leadership.
At EFI Connect 2015, Quinlan will join Gecht for a fireside chat
conversation, providing attendees with his unique leadership
perspective on the printing industry, the future of print, and RR
Donnelley's strategic positioning for short- and long-term success.
The discussion will also cover consolidation in the industry,
offering Quinlan's valuable insight as an executive who has
participated in some of the largest printing company acquisitions
ever completed.
