EFI and Landa Corporation entered into a partnership agreement for the development of a Digital Front End (DFE) for Landa’s Nanographic printing technology. The announcement was made today during the opening session of Connect, EFI’s annual users conference in Las Vegas.

LAS VEGAS, Jan. 21, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – EFI(^®) (Nasdaq:EFII) and Landa Corporation have entered into a partnership agreement for the development of a digital front end (DFE) as part of Landa's end-to-end Nanographic Printing^® solution. Landa's new DFE will employ high-performance, EFI-developed Fiery^® technology.

Speaking after the theatrical announcement live at Connect, Gecht said: “The teams have already begun working together, we have a team dedicated to this going to Israel. We’re serious about this, it’s a big machine with a high data rate, and we want to make sure we do our usual great job like with did with Xerox on the iGen.”

EFI und die Landa Corporation haben eine strategische Partnerschaft über die Entwicklung eines Digital Front Ends (DFE) für die nanografischen Druckmaschinen geschlossen.

EFI CEO Guy Gecht talks to Cary Sherburne about Connect 2014 – their biggest ever. Guy also talks about the big Landa announcement that Fiery will be the front end of all Landa nanographic devices.

It is too early to tell how exactly they are going to do this, but what we do know for sure is that there are many technical challenges ahead; in that sense the pledge from Guy Gecht to help Landa with the right technology here feels almost similar to John F. Kennedy’s promise to go to the moon, which inspired a nation to get behind NASA and pushed them to new heights.
