Highlighting the journey, Joshi recalled the significance of typewriters, cyclostyling machines, and the transition to offset printing. He also emphasised the importance of sharing knowledge and fostering progress in the industry.
Joshi said that one of the objectives of the 105-year-old PPOA organization was to impart printing education with its printing school in Pune. “Unfortunately, we could not take the programme ahead, and we had to stop the school.”
However, Joshi outlined their alternative approach of hosting engineering seminars to continue imparting education and knowledge to fellow industry professionals.
The second edition of Adoptech marks a continuation of PPOA's mission to advance printing education. “Pune is central to many districts in Maharashtra. Adoptech signifies a strategic step by PPOA to uphold and propagate printing education while fostering a sense of community and collaboration within the industry.”
