During the launch, Tushar Dhote, chief managing director at Dhote Offset Technokrafts, said, “The App is equipped to give all the relevant information about AIFMP with quite a few interesting features. The App is still in the development stage and it is being developed as extremely user-friendly, which can offer support instantly.”

AIFMP is the first association in India to launch an App. Currently, the App is available on android and shall be made available on iOS as well.

With a vision to promote print education in India and to prompt printing as a career, AIFMP has also initiated scholarships, stipends and gold medals for the students in printing fraternity in India. This was announced during the five-day PrintPack 2017 show at the AIFMP stall.
