The year 2008 may be wrapping up, but FlexoGlobal is not resting on its laurels and is continuing to grow and expand its services for 2009.
 
One of our newest initiatives is the new FlexoGlobal Users Group through LinkedIn. (http://www.linkedin.com/groups?gid=129119). Rather than reinventing the wheel, we thought we’d tap into a top-notch online network of more than 30 million experienced professionals (including many flexo companies) from around the world, representing 150 industries.
 
LinkedIn’s Groups are free to join and can help you stay informed and in touch with people that share your flexo interests and concerns. When you join, you create a profile that summarizes your professional accomplishments. You can include as much as little as you want—there are no rules. Once completed, your profile will help you find and be found by former colleagues, customers, and partners, and you can add more connections by inviting trusted contacts to join LinkedIn and connect to you.
 
LinkedIn seemed like a natural fit for FlexoGlobal, so we started the Users Group a couple months ago. We already have 35 members and several discussion flows going, and the numbers are growing If you’re interested in networking and sharing ideas with others in the international flexographic industry, I encourage you to join the group and start a discussion.
 
So, FlexoGlobal growing and adding services for the flexographic industry, but the next question is, “What else can we do to help the industry grow, both in North America and around the world?”
 
What really matters is what you, the users of FlexoGlobal, think is important. What do you see as the priorities, the action items, for growing the industry?  What services can we provide that we may be overlooking?
