NPES The Association for Suppliers of Printing, Publishing and Converting Technologies announces a new series of sector-specific webinars based on presentations from the ICC DevCon 2014 Conference. The first webinar in the series, "iccMAX Taking Color Management to New Frontiers!", will be held at 11:00 a.m. ET on April 22, 2015. iccMAX is the result of the ICCLabs’ work to enable new ways of communicating about light, color and appearance within color management systems.

The first 2-hour webinar in the series will present:

"Making Connections with iccMAX," with Max Derhak, Software Scientist, Onyx Graphics Corp.
"Introduction to iccMAX from the Business Perspective" – with William Li, Color Technology Manager, Eastman Kodak Company
"Taming Unusual Color Workflows with iccMAX" – with Marti Maria, Color Scientist, Hewlett-Packard
"Multi-Processing Elements in iccMAX" – with Phil Green, Professor of Colour Imaging, Gjøvik University College, Norwegian Colour and Visual Computing Laboratory; and, conclude with an interactive Q&A.

ICC DevCon 2014 Conference attendees gained an understanding of the background, as well as the practical application of their iccMAX-based solutions. Now, by incorporating material from those presentations together with current live updates, each of the webinars, that will include one general session followed by targeted sector-specific presentations, will offer this information to a broader industry audience.

Registration for each webinar in the series is $50. Webinar participants will be offered the opportunity to purchase the ICC DevCon 2014 conference video on DVD at the special discount price of $100. The video—which includes all of the technical presentations plus the live Q&A session—will allow those who were unable to attend DevCon to peruse at their convenience the wealth of content that was presented; conference attendees will likewise benefit from recapturing, rediscovering and sharing with their colleagues this information.
