Quad/Graphics Media Solutions combines traditional print and content support services with emerging mobile and other digital media solutions to help clients produce more powerful and consistent experiences across all media channels.
“Our new Media Solutions group reflects our continuing commitment to redefine print and make it even more relevant in a fast-changing multichannel world,” said Joel Quadracci, chairman, president and chief executive officer of Quad/Graphics. “Media Solutions brings together all of our content services to help clients create, optimize and connect their content across multiple media channels.

Our integrated services approach extends our traditional strengths in print into web, mobile, e-mail, e-reader, tablet, in-store and emerging channels.”
“We aim to be a single source that helps our customers communicate their brands consistently across multiple channels, including some that are new to Quad/Graphics,” said Chris Pryor, executive director of Quad/Graphics Media Solutions. “We have built a continuum of content solutions – including creative, photography, video, imaging and more – and are using new, integrated workflow and content management systems to help clients more efficiently and powerfully drive their content across all forms of media. We are helping clients use Quick Response (QR) Codes, Variable QR Codes, Image Recognition, Augmented Reality and Near-Field Communications to unleash the power of print and new-channel integration.”
