Postal Vision Conference: Future Opportunities


The second Postal Vision conference drew 150 attendees to Washington DC’s L’Enfant Plaza Hotel. No one from Congress could squeeze it in but USPS’ new Digital Solutions President and Strategic Planning Manager were in attendance...The real benefactors of this conference were the entrepreneurs in the audience. They recognize (1) Congress will never let the USPS go under, (2) USPS can only embrace digital technologies via work share contracts with the private sector, and (3) despite cascading physical mail volumes the USPS is still a $50 billion dollar business projected to handle half the world’s mail volume by 2020.
