Konica Minolta India, a leader in digital printing solutions, recently concluded its Annual Strategic Partner Conference (ASPC), held in Delhi from 5 – 7 October 2025. The theme this year was ‘Shaping New Heights, together,’ and the conference marked a significant milestone, celebrating 15 years of Konica Minolta’s presence in India and reaffirming the company’s commitment to co-creating the future with its valued partner network.

The conference served as a platform to share the company’s global vision and align its strategic direction with emerging market potential in India. Over three days of the conference, Konica Minolta brought together stakeholders from different regions for an agenda that outlined integrated strategic insights, product presentations, experiential demonstrations, and recognition sessions. The conference was relevantly themed and structured to promote a shared future vision.

The program included an India Message, global strategic perspectives and updates led by senior leaders from Konica Minolta Inc, Japan, and the introduction of next-generation products. In addition, the conference included the experiential Demo Zone, where partners received an engaging and inspiring opportunity to interact with Konica Minolta’s upcoming Office Print (OP) and Collaborative Solutions, with a glimpse into tools for future growth.

Speaking on the occasion, Katsuhisa Asari, managing director, Konica Minolta Business Solutions India said, “As we celebrate 15 years of Konica Minolta in India, this milestone is a testament to the trust, collaboration, and common vision we have developed with our partners over the years. The Annual Strategic Partner Conference is not just about celebrating the past but about activating our shared future. We are focused on empowering our partners with the global insights and strategic perspective needed to lead the market and contribute to a larger goal of comprehensive digital transformation. By introducing new products and collaborating on solutions, we demonstrate that we remain committed to empowering our partners and customers to greater success in the digital era.”

The final day focused on strategic alignment, with interactive sessions for Office Print partners and in-depth discussions and guided tours for Commercial Print partners at the Experience Center. These engagements fostered practical dialogue around achieving shared objectives and navigating the evolving print landscape together.

The Annual Strategic Partner Conference 2025 reaffirmed Konica Minolta’s role as a trusted technology and innovation leader in India and reaffirmed the mission to co-create sustainable growth with partners and clients.
