GASC Buys Gutenberg Festival

"The Western region has always been healthy and highly creative," says GASC President Regis Delmontagne. "Print sales in the region have grown strongly, with further growth of nearly 9 percent expected this year, according to PIA print market surveys. The region contains several of the country's largest metro areas, and is a major arena for the communications and entertainment industries—both key users of print and related tools. It is clear to us that any really complete regional show schedule had to include an effective event in the West," he adds.
