Web Consulting Opens US Office

Boston, MA (February 25, 2003) - Web Consulting, the UK-headquartered digital printing and imaging consultancy, has opened a new office in Boston, MA in order to serve businesses in the US while establishing a strong, local presence. Operating as Web Consulting USA, the office will be managed by Michael Flippin, a highly respected digital industry consultant.

"We are very excited that Michael will be managing the new office," said Stewart Partridge. "Michael's extensive industry experience, strategic vision, and wealth of industry contacts will be a great complement to our staff and the new office."

Michael Flippin is a recognized expert in analyzing digital printing markets. He joined Web Consulting in 2002 to help expand the company's range of services and capabilities offered to clients in North America, Europe and Asia. Prior to this, Mr. Flippin spent five years as a consulting partner with IT Strategies in Hanover, MA.

"Web Consulting has recognized the need to establish a strong service and support presence in the US, where growth in the digital printing industry is among the highest," said Michael Flippin. "I am pleased by this expansion and believe that our US clients will greatly benefit."

This is the second of two new office openings for Web Consulting. In March 2003, Web Consulting will open a new office in Shanghai, China, as part of a major expansion program.

"We are going through a period of sustained growth in our business with over 80% growth in 2001 and almost 60% growth over this last year, " said Stewart Partridge, Managing Director of Web Consulting.
