    Mark Potter, CEO of Conduit Inc., a leading content marketing agency and publisher of CANVAS magazine, aims to demystify AI for commercial printing businesses, offering a balanced perspective on its transformative potential. While Mark is not a technology expert, his experience with various AI platforms in content marketing and his team’s interactions with AI experts equip him to provide valuable insights. The message will emphasize embracing AI as a tool to enhance, not dictate, business operations. Mark will discuss AI’s macro-level impact on the industry, including market trends and opportunities, and share some of the compelling platforms that they have utilized.
