GWG Celebrates Fifth Anniversary

GHENT, Belgium—The Ghent Workgroup (GWG), a graphic arts best practice organization, recently celebrated its fifth anniversary. Chairperson David Zwang attributes the international association’s viability and solid credibility to the work of the group’s 45 members, all recognized as technological leaders and experts, and contributing their time and efforts on a completely voluntary basis.

“The GWG deserves congratulations for its exemplary work. The GWG represents the best of our industry, in bringing together talented people, from all over the globe, who genuinely care about the success and progress of the graphic arts marketplace,” says David Kew of Business Cards Tomorrow (BCT). Kew is implementing a total digital workflow at BCT’s 80+ locations throughout the U.S. and Canada, utilizing the GWG Output Test Suite.

Says Zwang, “The main reason for the success of the GWG is that the development of each of the specifications and best practices all continue to be consensus-driven and address the key problems being felt in the field. This is possible because the working members in each of the focused subcommittees include many of the top industry experts from around the globe.”
