DESCRIPTION:We’re delighted to welcome Bill Baxter\, Director of inkjet 
 company Inca Digital to speak to Cambridge Network members on Tuesday 21 M
 ay. \n\nBill Baxter took Engineering at Cambridge and worked in various ro
 les in R&D and consulting\, in the UK\, Singapore and Germany.\n\nIn 1997\
 , one of Bill’s clients asked him “why can’t I print my packaging wh
 en the product goes in the pack\, so I don’t have to carry so much stock
 ?”  That question triggered an interest in inkjet printing that led\, in
  May 2000\, to the setting up of Inca Digital Printers with six employees 
 and a distribution agreement with Sericol\, a UK-based ink manufacturer.\n
 \nIn April 2001 the first series product was shipped: an Eagle 44 that was
  still in daily use ten years later.  Inca was profitable by its third yea
 r\, and in 2005 was acquired by Dainippon Screen Manufacturing of Kyoto Ja
 pan\, shortly after Sericol was acquired by Fujifilm.  Bill continued as C
 EO apart from a break working directly for Screen from 2009.\n\nToday Inca
  employs over 200 staff in UK\, USA and continental Europe\, and its machi
 nes are sold all over the world.  Bill stepped down as CEO in April 2013 b
 ut continues as a director.\n\nTo book: If you would like to attend this e

 st for about 30-45 minutes\, followed by Q&A . There will be a light refre
 shments and an opportunity to network after the event\, which we estimate 
 will end around 9.00pm.\n
