"A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step".
The month of June marked a decisive step forward for EOS Mktg&Communication – the publishing house of the ipcm® magazines as well as marketing and communication agency – which is now officially a member of UNA – Aziende della comunicazione unite, an Italian association representing the main players in the marketing and communication sector.
UNA counts 203 associated companies from the world of creative and digital agencies, public relations agencies, media centres, events and retail, operating throughout Italy.
This represents a further step in affirming EOS’ presence throughout the territory and to promote our brand as synonym of reliability, transparency and creativity within the marketing and communication sector.
The first session of the Academy courses wrapped up
In June, the last lessons of the first session of the ipcm_Academy course – which aims at training the next technicians of industrial surface finishing processes – took place.
This first session, which also counted (at last!) some face-to-face lessons, was a great success: 13 people from 10 different companies took part in the course, which will return for a second session in September.
Trade fairs are back
Another sign of a return to normality comes from the trade fair sector, in particular from PaintExpo, the leading trade fair for surface finishing technologies of which EOS is the exclusive agency for Italy, Spain and Portugal.
After some postponements and the arrival of a new organizer, PaintExpo will return to liven the halls of Karlsruhe up from 26 to 29 April 2022. To date, there are already over 100 companies registered, including 39 from the countries we represent as an agency.
The early bird registration fee expired on 30 June but it is still possible to register as exhibitors at competitive rates. Contact us at info@eosmarketing.it for further information.
The month of Protective Coatings
And like it happens every June, the summer issue of ipcm® Protective Coatings – our magazine dedicated to corrosion prevention and control technologies – has been published.
In this June issue you can find an important testimony of the importance of surface preparation as the starting point for guaranteeing its quality and durability – in other words, the key to highly effective, reliable, and long-term corrosion protection.
Particularly, this edition features two success stories of firms that have managed to increase the performance of their applied anti-corrosion coatings by implementing automatic shot blasting operations. They have thus not only obtained the direct benefit of higher product quality, but also the indirect benefit of greater flexibility and autonomy in processing.
Ready to travel again
Finally, let’s conclude this review of June with a personal but important note for us: all the members of the EOS team have finally obtained at least one dose of the Covid-19 vaccine. The only side effect experienced is the considerable increase in the desire to return to travel around the world as soon as possible to meet the sector in-person once again.
