Driving Value-Based Service Innovation, with Andreas Schneider, Canon EMEA

<p>In this episode of In the Spotlight with Quocirca, Louella Fernandes, CEO of Quocirca, is joined by Andreas Schneider, Head of Customer Service and Operations at Canon Europe, to explore how service excellence is becoming a critical differentiator in the evolving print industry. The conversation examines Canon’s transformation from traditional break-fix support to proactive, predictive, and value-based service delivery, the growing role of AI, remote diagnostics, and automation in service operations, and how Canon is strengthening collaboration with its partner ecosystem across EMEA.
