NAPL & AMSP Merger Approved

On Saturday, December 14, the boards of the National Association for Print Leadership (NAPL) and the Association for Marketing Service Providers (AMSP) overwhelmingly approved the merger between the two associations. The AMSP brand will continue to exist as an independent brand within the structure of NAPL, in much the same way as the National Association of Quick Printers (NAQP) has since its merger with the parent association.

The structure of the merged entity will see Joseph P. Truncale, Ph.D., remain as CEO and Ken Garner, who heads AMSP will be named COO. The first phase of the merger will combine the back office services to provide more efficient operations for the association as a whole. For the immediate future, both locations will remain intact, but may be modified at some point in the future. Truncale says, “Because of its work with the Postal Service and Congress, it’s important for AMSP to have a presence inside the Beltway. Its location in Alexandria [VA] is perfect for that, so they will stay there. It is also important that we retain the Rutherford [NJ] offices, but there could be some adjustments in the future.”  Read Full Article.
