The Print Show is delighted to announced Print Mastermind Live!
– a brand-new area that will allow visitors to meet and connect with some of the most knowledgeable experts from the wider print market.
Developed in partnership with Colin Sinclair McDermott, The Online Print Coach, this area will focus on education, serving as a dedicated and interactive zone offering print business owners the chance to step away from the show floor and take part in open conversations about how to grow their business.
Visitors will be able to drop in and join short, topic-led group sessions hosted by experienced print professionals, offering practical insight into what is working in the print industry right now. Each 30-minute session will run at set times throughout the day, giving attendees the opportunity to speak directly with experts across a wide range of business topics.
Print Mastermind Live! will serve as an extension of Print Mastermind. Run by The Online Print Coach, this is an online business education community created to help print business owners and decision-makers build a more profitable, structured, and sustainable company. This will be the first time that sessions will take place, in-person at a UK industry event.
Details of the Print Mastermind Live! experts and the specific subjects up for discussion will be released over the coming months, with the sessions set to cover key talking points such as sales, marketing, automation, hiring, pricing, workflows, and AI adoption, all tailored for the real day-to-day of running a print business.
One-to-One Coaching Zone
Accompanying the new area will be the One-to-One Coaching Zone, a dedicated space for pre-booked one-to-one coaching sessions.
Sessions here will run as 20-minute strategy sessions throughout the day, allowing attendees to book ahead to secure time with The Online Print Coach and quiz him on their specific business needs.
Check back soon for details on how to book ahead to secure your in-person coaching session at The Print Show 2026.
