Kene Partners and BPIF New Strategic Partnership
We’re delighted to announce our new strategic partnership between BPIF and Kene Partners. Through their Associate Membership Kene Partners strive to drive innovation and funding opportunities for the UK Print Industry.
This partnership aims to support print businesses across the UK in accessing crucial R&D tax credits, innovation grants, and other funding opportunities that can help propel the industry into the future.
The UK’s print industry is experiencing a transformative shift, becoming increasingly innovative as businesses integrate advanced technologies and digital processes into traditional print workflows. From automation and digital printing advancements to sustainable packaging solutions, print companies are operating at the intersection of creativity and technology. Yet, many firms within the industry may not fully recognise the innovative nature of their work—or the potential financial incentives available to them.
"Many print companies today are essentially technology companies in disguise - There is an incredible level of innovation occurring within the sector, but companies often overlook the value of this work in terms of R&D tax credits and other government support. Our partnership with BPIF will allow us to bring greater awareness, understanding, and accessibility to these opportunities, positioning print businesses to maximise their growth potential." - Adam Kene, CEO Kene Partners.
Through this partnership, Kene Partners and BPIF will work together to bridge the gap between innovation and financial support, empowering print companies to continue evolving in a competitive, digitally driven environment. With Kene Partners’ deep industry knowledge and BPIF’s commitment to advocacy, education, and member support, this collaboration aims to deliver impactful benefits to the print sector, driving growth, competitiveness, and sustainability.
